*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

Public security bug reported:

It seems to be affected by aMsn. Whenever a new user logs in on msn, and
I have a "Locked Screen" on my Jaunty 9.04 laptop (after the screen has
become blank), I get the 'user has logged in' sound from aMsn and 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 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...

** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Visibility changed to: Public
