Dreamweaver Code Hints Bug?

I'm evaluating CS4 and am noticing some really significant bugs that are deal
breakers and surprising for a product that should have been QA'd for obvious
bugs.

One of the more significant bugs I'm encountering in Dreamweaver is regarding
code-hinting.

When I'm writing code, I often rely on code hints to cut down on typing and
increase my speed significantly, but especially within stylesheets, the code
hint list seems to pop up, then disappear so fast I don't have any time to
choose an option. Often it happens while I'm scrolling down the list and it's
clearly not operating as intended.

I thought there might be a setting in the preferences that would adjust this,
but it's clearly not a feature. There's no reason those code hints should
disappear WHILE I'm interacting with the list.

Advice?:frown;

The code hints should stay open when you're scrolling up and down the list of options. For me, I can use the up/down arrows as well as the scrool bar with the mouse and have no issues. If I hit the left or right arrows, then the hints disappear. I suppose that some other non-text keys may also make the hints list disappear. Is it possible that you're inadvertantly hitting some other keys while perusing the hints list?
