I've tried removing all ~/.* config files and the problem still exists. 
it appears on 2 different
networks i look after. Both are single server, many remote X session to 
them.  It can happen
on any account, though i found one account which uses evolution it 
happens pretty consistanty
even after removing all config files.  It appears to not close the 
process of occasionally when
you log out and leaves it running. 
I recently upgraded from 2.2 to 2.4 in sid which is when the problem 
started happening.
