It turned out this was caused by excessively long lines of text being added to 
the listview.

The funny thing is that the excessively long horizontal text resized the 
window vertically!

My fix was to split message greater than a certain number of characters over 
multiple lines.

However, is there another way of avoiding these resizings? Is the current 
behaviour a bug? Why does an especially wide column resize the listview 
vertically?
