IE8 post entry box behavior (1 post)

    I run into this problem with Internet Explorer 8. I've seen it happen on three different computers, different ISPs; WinXP and Windows 7.

    I'm typing a post in the entry box. All is well. Once my post exceeds the area of the entry box (starts to scroll), every time I stop typing -- literally for less than a full second -- the entry box "resets" its view.

    I don't lose data, and the cursor does stay where I left it, but the VIEW of the entry box is reset so I see the top of the post. As you can imagine, this makes it extremely difficult to write anything longer than a couple of hundred words.

    I have generally worked around this by using FireFox.

    I don't find anything on this problem by searching the forum here, but I can't imagine I'm the only one experiencing it. Is there a setting in IE8 that I'm missing?
