Mine (W98SE/Excel 97) seems to do that overy once in a while.
It appears to be associated with my scroll wheel on my mouse.
Try playing with that to get it back to normal.

I also try pressing both mouse buttons at the same time.  Some
combination of the above usually gets me back to normal
operation.
