All that being said is true. You should not use the msgbox for
debugging but the behavior I report should not happen either.

As I posted on a separate thread of its own a few days ago, stop
using msgbox for debugging this kind of thing.
I have done a lot of GUI and graphics programming and the LAST thing
you want is msgbox popping up and generating side-effects.
"Using system.debuglog to see a message is VASTLY lower impact.
To view the messages on a Mac, run the Console (in Applications/
Utilities).
On Windows, use the excellent DebugView http://www.sysinternals.com/
Utilities/DebugView.html
"
An alternative to the above technique is to play a different beep
tone to indicate your location
Either using DebugView or beeps has been fast enough for me in the
past inside a custom QuickTime component I wrote, alerting multiple
times per frame.
