Grey Box Appears Where AutomaticUpdater Control Should Be

We've tried to integrate the AutomaticUpdater into our app, but when we actually run the app, all we see is a small grey box where the AutomaticUpdater control should be. When you mouse over it, it moves a little bit to the right and disappears about 10 seconds later. Clicking on it brings up a small empty menu.

I'll include screenshots if it's possible on this forum, but once again, there's just a small grey box where the AutomaticUpdater control should be. Has anyone else experienced this? What might have we forgotten in the installation process?

OK, so I think I am closer to finding out what is going on. It actually looks like the background color is just a gradient like the background of the window. We tried setting the element background color to transparent and make the foreground color transparent and then it went black instead of transparent.

Any ideas on what we can try next?

Here is a screenshot of the problem...http://orion.medonecapital.com/Example2.PNG

Is the AutomaticUpdater being added as a sub-item to that gradient square box? If so, try moving the AutomaticUpdater to be a sub-element of the main window.
