Yep, that's a bug.  I've tripped over it too.  The reason it changes has
to do with MultiFinder, but it should report the correct value in the
data window.  The work-around is to go into TMON and look at windowKind there.
Another field that gets changed is updateRgn.  If you're updateRgn is not
empty, when you break into the Debugger, it saves away the updateRgn and
clears it.  When you start up it restores the updateRgn.  Again this is
to protect you from a "feature" of MultiFinder.
