When I start with a comment in a C++ file that looks this way
/********************
 * ...
 * ...
 ********************/
then only the very first line is colored correctly (as shown above).
If I add two empty lines before the comment everything is fine.
Reparse current file doesn't help at all.

Win XP, VS 2003, Build 1626, no other add-ins.

I agree, I expected to find this was some strange form of VA bug. Except that VA normally does not get involved in colouring comments, there is no need.

Baa, this was unexpected Thanks for you answer anyway.

I am seeing the same thing. I also see the same colouring when I disable VA.

So I used the registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\7.1\\Addins\\VAssistNET.Connect\\LoadBehavior = 0

to stop VA from loading at all. When I copy / paste this comment into an existing cpp file, at the very top, I see the same colouring. This appears to be an IDE bug.
