That actually sounds like a reasonable theory! What puzzles me tho
is that I see this same kind of flickering going on in the horizontal
direction as well as the vertical, and often both at once. Could it be
the same scrolling effect working both ways? Hmmmm...
I can report that on the news sites I visit, it happens with some
regularity. I did manage to get Bill's site up on server as a test
page, and it's showing the flicker, so I'll be testing this scrolling
idea out right away. Should have done it months ago, oy.
