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
