I had the same problem. I did a search on the 'newbie' archive and was able to find the problem. From what a gathered its a problem with one of the desktop files, where for some reason it's no being deleted correctly and everytime you load up your desktop it keeps loading up those gmc apps. I'm at work now, so I don't have access to a Linux box, so I can't tell you for sure the name of the file, but do a search on the archives, you'll find the answer there.
