Strange bug recurring in Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2 (Whidbey): junk popup
Support for VS beta 2 seems unlikely, however I am already using it at work, anticipating the full release of the product. I'm just hoping someone else has seen this problem happen before.
The problem happened a few times in the past couple of weeks, but is now occurring regularly, and it's now starting to cut into my productivity.
Now, ever second time I start debugging my winforms application, a junk popup window starts appearing in the bottom right corner of the VS screen. It intereferes with debugging, and prevents me from doing anything in VS. In fact, the only way out of the situation is to kill the devenv.exe process. The popup window has a single OK button in the middle, and a bunch of junk which looks like un-painted scraps from another window. I can click on the OK button, but the popup simply reappears, ad infinitum.
Here is a screenshot of the little bugger:

Anyone experience this problem before?
Anyone have a solution? Or least an idea why it's happening?
Thanks.
