It works exactly the way it is intended. - just not the way you think it should  :-)

>From Win32.hlp:

The FindWindow function retrieves the handle to the top-level window whose class name and 
window name match the specified strings. This function does not search child windows.  

HWND FindWindow(
    LPCTSTR lpClassName,	// pointer to class name
    LPCTSTR lpWindowName 	// pointer to window name
   );	
 
Parameters
lpClassName
Points to a null-terminated string that specifies the class name or is an atom that identifies 
the class-name string. If this parameter is an atom, it must be a global atom created by a 
previous call to the GlobalAddAtom function. The atom, a 16-bit value, must be placed in the 
low-order word of lpClassName; the high-order word must be zero.  

lpWindowName
Points to a null-terminated string that specifies the window name (the window's title). If this 
parameter is NULL, all window names match.  

Return Values If the function succeeds, the return value is the handle to the window that has 
the specified class name and window name. If the function fails, the return value is NULL. To 
get extended error information, call GetLastError.
