Bug Description

It seems to be affected by aMsn (EDIT: By update manager as well, so it's X server related..). Whenever a new user logs in on msn (EDIT: Not on the 'user logged in' notification. It appears when a new window pops up, i.e. when someone talks when the screen is Locked. Also, the bars show up when the Update Manager pops up with new updates), and I have a "Locked Screen" on my Jaunty 9.04 laptop (after the screen has become blank), the Top and Bottom bars from the Desktop show up. While the screen is Locked! When I click something, I do get the password prompt, but if I, for example, have a "35 ways to be lazy at work" webpage open on Firefox, it Shows up on the bottom bar application icon... and I sure don't want my boss to see.

I THINK (more sure now, cause it appears for more than 1 app) but can't be sure it's related to xorg, but seems to be!

Ubuntu version: 9.04
apt-cache policy xorg: 1:7.4~5ubuntu18
Expected: to Not show my Desktop contents when locked, Especially on a linux system...
Instead: I get portions of my Desktop (Top-Bottom bars) showing up...
