VS 2008 - writing code is hella slow? [VS 2008 - writing code is hella slow?]

I just installed VS 2008 at work, opened up a project I was just working on in 2005 and I noticed a significant slowdown in my ability to crank out code. would it be the intellisense that is doing this? Is there a way to turn off the intellisense's filter?

Specifically I was typing out a variable declaration in a function.

dim variable_name as decimal = me.header(0).column name

I am getting about a 7 to 10 second lag for that text to show up, but a bunch of flickering from the intellisense windows briefly showing up and disappearing.

Anyone else getting this problem? Any fixes to make writing code as fast as 2005?

Thanks in advance…

(Oh lookie, my function I wrote up before posting this just appeared in my code.. yeppie!)

I am looking to develop assistance software for our customer service folks, and I am looking to have a VB.NET app hook to a windows live messenger IM box. From there I would like my app to input text into the box, and initiate the 'send' button.

I know this can be done - I imagine the spammers that nest in yahoo have found a way to do it, but my web search turned up blank.

Any help would be appreciative.

thanks!
