blinking icons when downloading

[Piet van Remortel]

hi

just wondering:  When I download a file to my desktop, some update process 
apparently repaints all icons (20 or so) that are lying around on the 
desktop.  This repainting causes an irritating flickering effect on all 
visible icons.  This stops when the download ends.  Same thing happens 
when downloading to a directory while having Konqueror viewing the dir in 
a window.  My machine is a 1.7Ghz machine, and even then the updating is 
very annoying and slows thigs down a bit.

I cannot imagine that this is regular behaviour.  Anybody got any tips ?

tnx

Piet (from Belgium)
