NSTask, NSApp, and hiding

I'm trying to launch the Firefox browser from my main application using an NSTask while hiding my application until the Firefox application quits. I can launch Firefox with no problem, but my application hides after Firefox is closed, and I'm not sure why since I tell my application to "unhide". Maybe it will become clear if I paste the code...

- (IBAction)LaunchFirefoxFromMenu:(id)sender
{
	[NSApp hide:nil];	// hide current application

NSTask *task = [[NSTask alloc] init]; [task setLaunchPath:@"/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox"]; // set launch path

	[task launch];	// launch firefox
	[task waitUntilExit];	// waits for firefox to exit before continuing

[NSApp unhide:nil]; // should unhide my application, bringing it back into view }

Thanks,
David
