ListPlot and Tooltip

I have several sets of data which I plot together using ListPlot. In
order to distinguish the data I attempted to use Tooltip. I give some
example data below and find that Tooltip does not work. Am I doing
something wrong? Is there an alternative method for making Tooltip
operate. Surprisingly it works when I use ListLogPlot. I am using V7
with Windows.

Regards

data = Table[
   Table[E^(- a t), {t, 0, 100, 1}],
   {a, {0.001, 0.002, 0.005, 0.01, 0.02, 0.05}}];

names = {"run01", "run02", "run03", "run04", "run05", "run06"};

ListPlot[Table[Tooltip[data[[i]], names[[i]]], {i, Length[data]}],
 Joined -> True, Frame -> True]

ListLogPlot[Table[Tooltip[data[[i]], names[[i]]], {i, Length[data]}],
 Joined -> True, Frame -> True]
