Internet Explorer 8 (32-bit) flickers, Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
IE8 has been flickering after Windows 7 updates were installed, it was working fine when I first installed Windows 7 not sure which update might caused this problem. Any feedback will be appreciated Thanks

It can be due to your Display drivers or some addon. Also would suggest you check similar threads, which have been answered in the past http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/w7itprogeneral/thread/99f188e2-adff-4ce5-8198-464087994080 http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en/InternetExplorer/thread/9680fb80-2957-4aaa-804c-558fc6ca03ab -Mukesh

Hi, I would like to suggest you reset Internet Explorer settings to troubleshoot the issue. If it does not work, you may perform a System Restore and install the updates one by one to find out which update caused the issue. Regards,Arthur Li - MSFT

I uninstalled Adobe Shockwave and flickering stopped. Thanks for the help.

I don't know how much this will help as I'm not very tech saavy but recently I purchased a Sony Vaio with windows 7 64-bit OS. The version of IE8 that came with it, worked fine but I kept getting a message to upgrade to IE8 - obviously a different version. Once I upgraded, my flickering problems started. After some research and seeing so many different solutions I decided to revert back to the IE that my system came with which is version 8.0.7600.16385. Flickering problems solved!
