I don't visit any pages with blinking text in them, so I can't 
verify it.. :-)

Send me a URL where this happens and I'll give it a look.  I certainly
haven't noticed anything like this myself.

BTW, has anyone looked at some of the new features in 2.0b2?  The
scripting features and the "frames" look *really* promising.  I went
through their little "recruitment service" demo and was pretty
impressed.

These people are going to take over the world.  I want some
stock! :-)
