WizMouse allows you to scroll the window under the mouse with your mouse wheel even if the that window doesn't have input focus.
Windows 10 already has this functionality built in so WizMouse is most useful if you're using earlier versions of Windows (Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7, 8).

Prior to Windows 10, it wasn't possible to scroll windows with the mouse wheel unless the window had input focus. You'd have to click the window first before being able to scroll it. WizMouse allows this functionality on older versions of Windows.
WizMouse can translate mouse wheel messages into scroll bar messages. This allows wheel scrolling in old applications that don't support mouse wheels.
WizMouse can optionally reverse the wheel scrolling direction (like OS X "Natural" scrolling)..
The "enhancements" Microsoft made to MSJVM were viewed by Sun Microsystems as an attempt to destroy Java's cross-platform nature. Sun filed a lawsuit in 1997, alleging that Microsoft had breached its licensing agreement by creating a version of Java that was incompatible with the official standard.
Java Native Interface (JNI) [14]. Simultaneously, they added Windows-specific extensions—such as DCOM integration —that made Java code written for MSJVM incompatible with other operating systems [14]. 2. The Legal Battle: Sun Microsystems v. Microsoft Sun Microsystems, the creator of Java, sued Microsoft in October 1997 for violating their "Write Once, Run Anywhere" principle [8]. Sun argued that Microsoft’s modifications were an attempt to fragment the Java platform. The resulting settlement forced Microsoft to: Phase out the MSJVM entirely [30]. Stop including it in new versions of Windows (leading to the release of Windows XP Service Pack 1a , which specifically lacked the MSJVM) [11]. 3. Sunsetting and Legacy Microsoft officially ended support for the MSJVM on September 30, 2004 [9].
