Just a hunch, but how you are handling buffering on each version?

Next, you could force a Look and Feel on the app. There are plenty available
for free. Check out sourceforge.net for Java Look and Feels that look much
better than the native ones shipped with the JSDKs.

I would bet this is on XP right? Yes the L&F were changed in 1.4.2 from
1.4.1 for XP. AFAIK, I do not think the Metal L&F was changed at all, nor
the standard Windows Look and Feels, but for XP it definitely was.
