Default Outlook Inbox Flicker, Flashing, Redrawing

We have had good success with our Outlook 2007 VSTO Add-In.

However, on some systems, users' inbox contents appear to be redrawing
quickly which results in a flicker effect (restricted to the inbox, no
hardware error here).

Can we double buffer the Inbox or something similar to solve this issue? Any
suggestions are welcome and appreciated.


Thank you

You can't really buffer the Inbox, if this doesn't occur on all systems I'd
be looking at the differences of where it occurs and where it doesn't.

Is this the result of some action the addin takes? Does it happen on the
same systems without the addin running?

It appears it might be related to an Intellipoint bug. Will post findings.
