Dave,

The flicker thing is the intended behavior.  The default font size used by the 
pod reader is much too small on all of my computers, so I automagically zoom 
in on the font.  Apparently there is something about the way fonts are set up 
on your machine that results in an illegible final choice for the fonts.

Go to Settings -> Edit preferences, then General -> doc_zoom and make the 
value either bigger or smaller.  A value of 0 should certainly be ok, altough 
on my computer it's rather too small.
