Mouse scroll on both monitors
I have two monitors and noticed that when I'm scrolling through the items in my inventory it simultaneously scrolls a webpage that's open on my second monitor. Is there a simple fix that allows me to lock the scroll in-game?

Bear in mind Skyrim uses its own mouse pointer and piggybacks off of, and hides, the windows pointer while playing Skyrim. Hence that annoying Alt Tab double cursor some of us used to experience in Oldrim. There are mods to fix that scenario so, hopefully, there will be something out there for you guys with dual or more than one monitor. Wishing you good luck and success.

This is what I use and it works great. Dual Display Mouse Manager http://ddmm.sourceforge.net/
the best option is to only cross windows when ctrl is held down. No more second monitor scrolling.

Edit:The only issue I have is that the options are not very good. You dont get a choice of keys to press that allow for crossing windows it is only ctrl.

Make sure your brower does not have focus (click on the desktop before you start skyrim, if you go to the other monitor to look something up once again click on the desktop before returning to skyrim)

I found a Fix.
If your on windows 10 click the Windows button, go to settings. Click on Devices,Mouse and touchpad, Turn OFF "Scroll inactive windows when I hover over them" Enjoyo guys!

Works great. But I had to click... Windows Button, then the "My PC" Button to get the page with the Settings Button at the top.

Excellent. It's always nice when a problem gets solved, Mr. K

I know this is an old thread, but I recently had the same problem and found that one of my mouse modifiers called "wizmouse" was causing the problem. If you've got any 3rd party mouse apps or modifiers installed, try disabling them and see if it sorts your problem out.

Man reading this thread makes me laugh so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ much. You deserve a medal for how much people you saved from slight inconvenience while playing a nearly ten year old game, myself included.
