]]> exposeIn 10.6 that when use Exposé in Application Windows mode, it shows  all windows, not just the ones in the current Space. I always end up clicking on the wrong window and being whisked away to a another Space.

To stop that from happening, open Terminal and run these two commands:

defaults write com.apple.dock wvous-show-windows-in-other-spaces -bool FALSE
killall Dock

From now on, Exposés Application Windows mode will only show windows in the current Space.

To reverse this hint, use 

defaults delete com.apple.dock wvous-show-windows-in-other-spaces
killall Dock
