Panther expose hidden

(new poster, plz bear with me)

Running OS v10.3.4 on a G3 iMac w/512mb RAM
The expose' function with the F9 key is neat, but....
When I hit F9, I get a window for each app running AND a window with the
title "hidden".
Is this normal?
Why does it do that?

TIA,
GW

I've never noticed it doing that. It didn't do it for me just now, but
I'm running 10.3.3

Could it represent windows that have been minimized to the dock?

I've thought of that. But have since noticed that it does it even with
nothing minimized. I can run just one app (like this one, Mozilla)
and hit F9 and I get three windows:
1. Compose "re: panther.."
2. "re: panther...."
3. "Hidden" which is blank

Re: Panther expose hidden

after reading my last post.......(one minute ago)

I may have just answered my own question.
I ALWAYS am running Mozilla, and that's what produces the "hidden" extra
window in expose.

oops/DOH!
