I have a glitch in my program.

I have a normal 24bit image as my form background image.
The image contains only yellow in the areas I don't want shown; so I use yellow as my transparency key.
The form is also yellow.

When I run this on my computer (WinXP) everything is great. NP's. When on my friends compter (OS?) all is good. On my cousins computer (WinXP) all is good until he minimizes it or opens a dialog box related to it. Then the yellow is shown. I also installed this program at work (WinXP) and got the same problem. It looks good until I minimize it or open another child window of any kind. Then when I un-minimize it or close the child window the yellow borders show through.
Any ideas?

I'm not doing anything special with the paint events, i'm not even handlind them. Just droping an image with yellow sections, setting the transparancy key to yellow, then running it. I have tried setting the forms Double Buffer to True as well and get the same problem.
