Description of problem:
rhn-applet-gui runs even there is nothing visible on the gnome-panel,
or on the desktop, eating around 2% of cpu and some ram.
Moreover I don't see an obvious interface to stop it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhn-applet-2.1.11-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. log in
2. see rhn-applet run with a top 
3. no way to stop it


Actual Results:  see above

Expected Results:  there should be something visible to control rhn-applet

Additional info:

My home directory started with redhat 9, from time to time I clean
configuration directories and files in it, but there may be old config
file lying around.

I run yum by hand and don't need rhn-applet.
