I was directed to change the intellipoint driver to version 5.0
first remove intellipoint 6.0 then install version 5.0
it is on the MS site if you do not have an earlier CD
it should install point32.exe instead of ipoint.exe

This was bugging me for a couple of weeks - the flickering & shuddering was
most noticeable in all Adobe applications, but was also present in my Audio
applications. It essentially made a £2,900 system running over £40,000 worth
of software cloose to unusable.
Uninstalling Intellipoint 6.1 cured the issue, bt of course I lost all
additional button functionality. As I used to have CTRL set to Second Left &
ALT to Second Right, loss of usefulness makes this bug joke.

Same for me. I have a Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000 and it requires
6.0 to operate so I can't even go down to 5.5. I have a HP NC6120 laptop
with XP Pro SP2 with all the latest HP drivers. I get flickering with
Cisco's ASDM gui ASA firewall manager.
I run AutoHotkey and have a script to toggle IPoint.exe on/off (kill and
run) tied to Ctrl-Alt-m.
Below is the script I grabbed off the net if anyone is interested:
Hotkey, ^!m, ToggleIpoint
ToggleIpoint:
Process, wait, ipoint.exe, 1
NewPID = %ErrorLevel% ; Save the value immediately since ErrorLevel is
often changed.
if NewPID = 0
{
run, C:\Program Files\Microsoft IntelliPoint\ipoint.exe
Msgbox ,262192,Microsoft Mouse,Ipoint.exe ON, 2
return
}
; Otherwise:
Process, priority, %NewPID%, Low
Process, priority, , High ; Have the script set itself to high priority.
Run, taskkill /F /IM %NewPID%,,hide
Msgbox ,262208,Microsoft Mouse,Ipoint.exe OFF, 2
Process, WaitClose, %NewPID%, 3
if ErrorLevel ; The PID still exists.
MsgBox Microsoft Ipoint Mouse Program did not close
return

I've got the same problem with the newest version of the Intellipoint
software. I'm using Windows XP. I've noticed a short flickering after
switching back to the program using the taskbar in several programs e.g.
WinRAR...
Now I will uninstall the Intellipoint Software and waiting for a bugfix.

Finally after several months of flickering and getting pissed off installing
ipoint 5.5 fixed it and my laser 5000 works.
The 6.1 and 6.2 both were flickering. Bunch of junk.
