Because you are running a version of RISC OS which supports text selection
in writable icons (4.39).

If that's what you want, you need to configure RISC OS to do it. Run
Configure, click "Windows", click "Windows" on the new window, go to the
"Text selection" section. Set the "Insert" behaviour to "Delete selection"
in the "Keyboard input effects" bit.

I agree this behaviour is much better, I don't know why ROL didn't make it
the default.
