YACT: Start menu and pulldown menus flicker when playing yahoo games

[NeoPTLD]

I'm running Windows XP Pro and I have the latest Sun Java installed.


Whenever I'm playing Yahoo game, expanded start menu, pulldown menu, yellow box that pops up when you hold a cursor on something and etc flickers and selecting items from the start menu isn't smooth.

I tried it in Mozilla and IE. There is no difference.

Hardware is Athlon 1.4GHz 266FSB w/ 512MB DDR.

Scanned for virus last night and found nothing.
HDD isn't fragmented.

Anyone have a clue?

I was like... WTF are you doing playing Yahoo games while driving?!

I get that too, it also makes trillian flash. Its an issue with yahoo games interfering with the transparency algorithms in XP or something. Maybe the window goes in and out of focus really fast or something.
