dbus is a messaging bus that allows processes on the desktop communicate
between each other. It is used in a lot of the new GNOME programs for
interprocess communication: for a while, Beagle (the desktop search
engine) used DBUS to pass messages between various parts of the program.
As a server-only Linux user, I unfortunately can't help you with why its
happening. Sorry 'bout that.
