[WriteLog] 7th Call Area module slowness

Addition to my previous posting. I am operating CW. After a few QSOs have 
been logged the slowness gradually increases from under a second to several 
seconds for keystrokes to appear on the entry line. Giving up on the CW 
memory and operating using my paddle I'm able to make a few more QSOs until 
finally the keystroke entries take almost a minute for the callsign and 
county information to appear in the entry window. At this point the program 
is almost totally frozen. Quitting and opening a different module such as 
the ARI International module results in absolutely normal operation.


I am bouncing between the ARI International contest and the 7th Call Area
contest. The ARI module is working perfectly but the 7th Call Area has
delayed operations. For example, typing in a field does not produce visible
keystrokes on the screen for a second and pressing an F key for a message
results in the message being sent a second later. Other functions are also
slow such as hitting the space bar to change fields and clicking on a spot
in the band map.

If I close the 7th Call Area contest and open the ARI contest everything is
again instantaneous. Going back to the 7th Call Area results in slowness
again.

I've also restarted my PC and closed out all other apps. Same results. I'm
running 10.84d on Vista and never had any problems like this before.
