This is probably a facet of how your shell handles the $PROMPT_COMMAND .
In my ~/.bashrc I have:

``
   # If this is an xterm set the title to [EMAIL PROTECTED]:dir
    case $TERM in
    #xterm*)
    #    PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033]0;[EMAIL PROTECTED]:
${PWD}\007"'    #    ;;
    *)
        ;;
    esac
''

Change that as appropriate.
