How to block temporarily jquery mousewheel

I have a small animation of a home page and need to disable the mousewheel till it's done (which I manage to do with the jquery mousewheel plugin). My problem is that I can't figure out how to enable the mousewheel again after this animation.

$('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: $("#header").position().top }, 3000).bind("mousewheel", function() {
return false;     });

I would guess .unbind("mousewheel") would be the thing. So:

$('html, body').animate({
    scrollTop: $("#header").position().top
}, 3000, function() {
    $(this).unbind("mousewheel");
}).bind("mousewheel", function () {
    return false;
});

The .animate() method lets you supply a callback function that will be called on completion of the animation, so within that function you can unbind your mousewheel handler.

(Note: if you're using jQuery version 1.7 or later it is generally recommended to use .on() and .off() rather than .bind() and .unbind(), though for this purpose they do the same thing.)
