AlwaysMouseWheel allows you to scroll (via mouse wheel) any window under the mouse, even if that window is not in the foreground. This is especially useful when referencing multiple windows without losing focus on the primary window (e.g. taking notes).

"@boby_toss: No, I'm not the developer and I'm not gonna lie, I just realized that both my Nick and the WizMouse app start with WIZ, that's a funny coincidence :) There's another freeware app called MouseHunter it's a good one too."
1. Who the fxxk is boby?
2. WizKey is by the same developer... a remarkable coincidence, is it not?

@Wizkey: So, are you the developer of Wizmouse? Would be nice to announce it, if so.
v2.34
Have you guys tried WIZMOUSE? The apps is a bit bigger im KB but...:
1. The amount of memory it uses is lower and doesn´t increase that much when you work on several windows.
2. The responsiveness of the scrolling is way better and the window titlebar doesn´t blink like AlwaysMouseWheel.
Please comment on this.

V1.85
It still breaks ctrl+wheel zoom in Excel. Until that's fixed, it's a no-go to me
