Some weeks ago, I already presented to this list a simple script that showed
what you are complaining against.
Then, 10.4.1 was out and the problem still exists.
For the record, here's the working script (close the front window and open it
back to see it at its previous location):
tell application "Finder"
set position of front window to {0, 44}
end tell
This will not help Eugenio, but now he knows he is not alone on this dead horse :(

Hi, please excuse my poor Enghlish.
I wrote this AppleScript may Years ago:
http://www.roam.it/soft/wip/wip.html
And you can download his source there or following this link:
http://www.roam.it/soft/wip/wip.sitx
wIP (Windows In Place) is a small AS, that disposes all the windows
he finds in one or all levels (the source linked disposes one level,
but on my website, at first link, you'll find the complete edition
with all sources), starting from a root folder the user can choose.
the reason why it was created is to have clean windowing behaviour
whan burning CDs od DVDs, and in general some "read only" disks.
After I installed Tiger the Script doesn't work, meaning that it
seems to work, but after his end, if you open the windows manually,
they return at the place they have before wIP's launch.
The same problem I were experiencing after Panther was relased and
only 10.3.2 solved that issue.
Any ideas?!
Wait for 10.4.2 ? (or .3, .4, 5 ???)
