I suspect that this is a change in a relatively recent Windows 7 update.
I see similar behavior with scripts launched with a tool called HSTART,
short for Hidden Start. HSTART exists specifically to start programs
without opening a CMD window. Recently, a change in Windows itself has
led to the CMD window flashing open briefly when HSTART launches.

If what you see is the same thing as what I see then it isn't Condor's
fault. It's something in Windows itself.
