EVALUATION I wan unable to reproduce the flickering :( But I've seen "Another Observation: when the fileDialog is opened by "My Network places" button is partially displayed." And verified that we have the same behavior in native application. Could you please check if the problem is (or isn't) reproducible with native apps.

EVALUATION Looks similiar to 6517021. Again, I can't reproduce it on my WinXP desktop, but I do remember this behaviour occurs sporadically while running Java applications.
