So my hope was that it would be possible to somehow fix this "Bill Gates bug" by adjusting some code I OL.. The problem is that I (we) don't know which part of the OL code that this IE7-bug affects so it's a bit difficult to try out some workarounds..

The place to fix it would be in Events.js by adding some pixel
coordinate modifications in the getMousePosition method. But don't ask
me which modification is needed, the incorrect positions seem to be
pretty unpredictable.

Andreas.
