I'm now running Ubuntu 10.10 Desktop 64bit, and I just experienced this
problem again today.

Here's how to reproduce the problem:

Turn on visual effects:
System > Preferences > Appearance > Visual Effects > Extra > Close

Install freemind:
sudo apt-get install freemind

Launch Freemind:
Applications > Office > Freemind

Freemind will launch so high on the screen that you will now be able to
grab the title bar and pull it down. In order to get it down lower, you
have to do this:

System > Preferences > Appearance > Visual Effects > None > Close

Other information:
I'm using dual monitors, and the last time I had Freemind open, I had it place 
at the top of the 2nd monitor. Could it be, that, upon launch, freemind is 
remember its vertical placement on that 2nd monitor, and trying to do that same 
placement on the primary monitor (ignoring the fact that the gnome-panel will 
hide its title bar at that placement)?

I'm not sure, just thought that might be helpful info.
