Why does the page flicker with IE on a Mac?

No one has asked this yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone does soon: I'm on a Mac using Internet Explorer, why does the screen flicker when I expand the task tree? This didn't happen in version 1.0.

In version 1.0 all tasks in a tree were loaded into the page at once. This made viewing large task trees very slow in both transfer and rendering - and we were loading a bunch of information that may not even be needed. In version 1.5 we use a hidden iframe to dynamically load branches of the task tree as they are requested. For some reason, in the Mac version of IE this causes the screen to flicker. I suggest using Camino or Safari as both of them are much nicer browsers anyway. If you really want to use IE on Mac, you may want to stay with version 1.0.
