Top-Down scrolling window - pause on mouseover?

Script: Top-Down scrolling window
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex8/topscroll.htm

Is there any way to make the scrolling page pause on mouseover (and resume on mouseout) when using the above script?

//change 1 to another integer to alter the scroll speed. Greater is faster
var speed=1, theInterval, going=0;
var currentpos=0,alt=1,curpos1=0,curpos2=-1
function initialize(){
startit()
}

function iecompattest(){
return (document.compatMode!="BackCompat")? document.documentElement : document.body
}

function scrollwindow(){
if (document.all)
temp=iecompattest().scrollTop
else
temp=window.pageYOffset
if (alt==0)
alt=1
else
alt=0
if (alt==0)
curpos1=temp
else
curpos2=temp
if (curpos1!=curpos2){
if (document.all)
currentpos=iecompattest().scrollTop+speed
else
currentpos=window.pageYOffset+speed
window.scroll(0,currentpos)
}
else{
currentpos=0
window.scroll(0,currentpos)
}
}
function startit(){
if(!going){
theInterval=setInterval("scrollwindow()",10)
going=1
}
}
function stopit(){
clearInterval(theInterval)
going=0
}
window.onload=initialize
document.onmouseover=stopit;
document.onmouseout=startit;

</script>
