Public bug reported:

metacity uses 100% CPU because "Wireless Network Authentication
Required" boxes appear every "few minutes?" and never go away (unless
manually closed).  Eventually there are hundreds? of them and metacity
uses 100% CPU dealing with them.

I don't expect ANY "Wireless Network Authentication Required" box to pop
up!  I am not trying to authenticate to a wireless network.  There
doesn't appear to be any non-draconian way to prevent this misbehavior.
I do not wish to for instance, "Disconnect".
