I don't think it's the first dialog, either. In the script where this
first appeared, the 'delay 5' is a handler that does Finder stuff for
many minutes, after which the second dialog appears only briefly.
It's supposed to be visible for up to 10 seconds.

If you immediately click OK for the first dialog, then wait, the
second dialog only appears briefly, not for the desired 4 seconds.
Wha???? Something's wrong! Any suggestions?
The problem is not related to the first dialog box, the delay and
"giving up after.." seem to be linked.. if you change the delay to
2 seconds, you'll notice that the dialog stays active for a further
two seconds.. Why? dunno.. But it's not your first dialog..
