Drop icons make me lag, and or freeze my screen

I've been dealing with this situation for quite a while now and haven't posted anything about it until now. But whenever I defeat anything or collect anything I would get the drops shown on the left side of my screen, the only problem is that when those items disappear, it freezes my game and stops my movement for a split second, only until those items fully disappear im back into control, this also occurs when i click on one of my friends in my friends list and their character shows up, my screen freezes for a split second. I dont know why I only deal with this when it comes to video problems in Wizard101, as wizard101 runs just fine with no problems. Only when I get drops and when they disappear it freezes my screen. Anyone know what the big deal is? Or better yet fix this problem? Thanks

I'm having the same issue as well, gets annoying after awhile. I can still play the game, it's just that when I click on my friend's name, it would lag for a second then run normally. Same with drop icon....I thought I was the only one experiencing this problem.
