Usually this means that vertical sync is set, and you need to unset it, it's one of the most annoying things ever from computers that are slightly behind recommended specs.
The suggested SkyrimPrefs.ini i was using was the wrong one.
Using Process Monitor i was able to figure out that the correct one is:
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\Skyrim\SkyrimPrefs.ini
e.g.
C:\Users\Ian\Documents\My Games\Skyrim\SkyrimPrefs.ini
Changing [Controls]\fMouseHeadingSensitivity to
fMouseHeadingSensitivity=0.1250 (new)
fMouseHeadingSensitivity=0.0125 (old)
did the trick.

Under [controls] in Skyrim.ini (Found in "My Documents\My Games\Skyrim") there are two entries.
Change the YScale to match the XScale and all is well in the world again.
