I have a web page containing (amongst other things) several activex controls embedded in it. It's only ever rendered in IE, and it's in strict mode. If I highlight any text in the page (or rollover an image with an onmouseover event to change it's image or whatever), the controls all flicker horribly.

If I change the page to quirks mode, the flicker vanishes. I've done extensive searches looking for a solution, and found lot's of stuff about how IE 6 was broken and weird, but this is happening in IE 7 and 8.

So, any ideas on what I can do to fix and/or diagnose this?
