Natural - reverse scrolling in Windows 7

Being an IOS, OSX and a Windows 7 user i must say that the "Natural" scrolling that comes with the Mac seems to feel actually quite natural to me. So i would like to have that same experience on all platforms.  After doing some searching i stumbled upon a program called x-mouse button control  by  Highresolution Enterprises . This little utility does a lot when it comes to tweaking your mouse. And it also has the feature to reverse the direction of the scroll wheel.  I used it for some time and was really happy with it. But then the next thing came up. On my windows 7 portable i am running OSX Lion in an virtual machine. Inside this machine the mouse wheel would not scroll at all because of the x-mouse utility. When i turned the wheel you can feel the page go up but immediately it scrolls down the same amount of pixels. Changing the direction setting inside OSX did not seem to resolve the problem.  Sure, you can use the hotkey settings in x-mouse to switch off it
