Has anyone out there had a problem with the "ghost" thumb when creating
scrollbar controls?  The ghost thumb is what I call the outline of the 
scrollbar's thumb which sometimes shows when the thumb is dragged quickly.

The problem I have is when I try to link two scrollbars (i.e. have the movement
of one send a message to the other to update its value) the thumb of the
"master scrollbar" gets out of sync with its ghost; the thumb and ghost
move at different rates!  This only happens when dragging the thumb, not when 
using the scrollbar arrows.

Has anyone seen similar behavior? is there something I should know about
how the ghost is implemented?  Any and all help/suggestions/hints will
be greatly appreciated.
