Scroll/Magnify have switched

Usually, using the mouse wheel will scroll up and down in a worksheet, and holding the CTRL button along w/ mousewheel will magnify/unmagnify. Somehow on my computer at work, these things got switched and it's causing me much confusion - anyone know how to fix it?
Works with Word also
