Killall Finder Brings Hidden Apps To Front?

i have this code to relaunch the finder:

- (void)killAllFinder
	{
	NSTask *killAllFinderTask;
	killAllFinderTask = [[NSTask alloc] init];
	[killAllFinderTask setLaunchPath:@"/usr/bin/killall"];
	[killAllFinderTask setArguments: [NSArray arrayWithObject:@"Finder"]];
	[killAllFinderTask launch];
	[killAllFinderTask release];
}

it *use* to work as expected, the finder and desktop icons would
relaunch - disappearing for a second and then returning.  but as of
today, i've noticed that apps currently open and hidden will unhide
and be brought to the front when this method it activated... WHAT is
that about?

if there's any clue, i had my screen replaced today and the technician
did some sort of keyboard relaunch command (zapped PRAM?)... could
that be what is causing this?
