I had this problem for several years (only when dragging scroll bars, though). It eventually went away when I upgraded my IBM ScrollPoint II (blue "joystick" scrolling device; three buttons) to driver level QJ9Z28US, version 1.78. There may be a similar new driver for the ThinkPad version of this mouse.

It seems that IBM rewrites these drivers over the course of a year and releases their latest version of the continuously-rewritten drivers in July.

NOTE that IBM's driver-download web page does not make it in any way clear that they have changed the drivers--new ones just suddenly appear and it's up to you to find them... even if you're registered to receive e-messages when they change drivers for your machine.
