What version of Mathematica and which operating system are you using?  I
do not see this behavior on either Mac OS 7.5.3 or Windows NT 4.0
(running Mathematica 3.01.1).  However there are problems with Mac OS 8
(an Apple bug) that wri has fixed with a patch.  See the following URL:

Hope that this helps.
