   Avoid calling GetWindowText on the BeeKiller window itself as you are in
a busy loop, therefore not handling messages, therefore not responding to
the WM_GETTEXT message sent to discover your own text.

            for w in windows:
              if w != hwnd:
                title = GetWindowText(w)

   Can't recall.
