Changing active windows via task bar pops up other active windows

When I have several active windows open and I use the task bar to jump
between active windows, other active windows pop up to the top. This happens
most noticably when active windows are stacked. So, say I have 5 active IE
windows, I click on the IE active window item to cause the 5 individual
window items to display so that I can choose one by a second mouse click.
When I make the first mouse click, on the IE active window item, a completely
different active window jumps to be displayed on top of all the other active
windows on my desk top.
