Not sure about the later part.

There may be hundreds of reasons. If you are really concerned, consider
debugging it with gdb and give more information (to the list, no to me
personally). But usually there is no point in debugging 2 years old
software that has been actively developped since then.

With Ximian GNOME 1.4, you can just exit from gmc and it won't be
restarted. To exit from gmc, open a gmc withow (e.g. Trash) and select
Commands->Exit from the menu.
If it doesn't work for you, consider an upgrade to Ximian 1.4 - go to
ximian.com.

You are giving me version of KDE, but version of GNOME would be more
appropriate here :-)

It's very old. 4.5.55 is the latest version. Ximian 1.4 ships 4.5.54.
