that handle it?

Basically, yes. Though a "service" isn't the easiest way to do this (on Vista, services are isolated from the user desktops, and even on XP they're isolated from all but the first user's desktop). You probably want an app that sits in the Run key (and pays attention to fast-user-switching).

It won't work for everything, but at least some apps will respond to WM_HSCROLL messages if you send them to exactly the right window.
