Yeah, I know I shouldn't be using a listbox, but I'm just sick of using grids. :(

I'm trying to get out of a trap of using the same controls all the time. Then again, that's not really a good excuse... is it?

If you'd use them for 5000 items, you definitely find bunch of problems. I already found this, so then I switched to multiselect Grid (available here in Files section - file by Cetin Basoz). I created quite complicated class based on Cetin's class and posted it also in Files section. You may want to take a look at both of them.
