Ooops, sorry, I was so sure that this only happens on 9X that I haven't
proved it on NT. You're right, it happens on NT as well when starting
background processes from the console window. This does not happen when
starting background processes from a remote session via telnet/ssh.
Unfortunately you can't start GUI processes from a remote session.
