Urxvt Xcompmgr Transparency Streaks

I launched an instance of urxvt using this command:

urxvt -depth 32 -fg white -bg rgba:0000/0000/0000/bbbb

Which is supposed to be true transparency (right?).

However, when moving the window around the screen, it leaves streaks.
Here's a picture: http://i46.tinypic.com/121wfw7.png

Is there any way to fix this or should I just not use transparency?

EDIT: I'd use transset, but that also makes the window decorations transparent, which I don't like. So if there's an option or something to not do that...

DOUBLE EDIT: So I've found out its xcompmgr's drop shadows. So... kind of solved. Unless there is some kind of fix for that...
