is this a bug??

All of the sudden my attack periscope now takes forever to dry off (for the water to run down and view clears up)--it stays blurry for a really long time (45 sec to minute) even at shallow periscope depth making taking shots and tracking a pain-it clears up eventually and then when a wave hits its back to blurry for another minute!!! My Observation scope is fine and doesn't do this--only the attack scope. this is just killing me because it just started happening for no reason yesterday--have been playing for over a month and it was fine. I didn't install any new mods that would affect graphics-- I have latest video drivers and have tried the sedona and extreme forceware 84.xx drivers. No major changes to my system except changing sound acceleration (which i tried changing back)for SWAT 4 to run. I am using:

SH3 Commander 2.6(tried starting without to see if it would fix it--didn't)
Grey Wolves 1.1a
Das Boot Clothes
TDC Slideout for attack scope--this should be a must have btw!(been installed and working fine)

Anyone else had this problem -- there is no slowdown or system lag--the damn thing just stays blurry so i can't see through it...it happens in carreer and single missions and i noticed it yesterday when continuing my career(in base patrol 6). no changes to SH3 Commander config...confused....Anyone run into this--or is there a mod to install little windshield wipers on the attack scope?
thx
