That the 'X' button just closes the window, not the application. Only
when you close the last mozilla window, the application quits. So 'X'
button closes window, not applications/processes.

There are more.

If you have no notification area GnomeMeeting quits. GnomeMeeting always
quits when it has no gui on your desktop. Easy ;)
You are confusing minimizing with hiding. You can only minimize the
GnomeMeeting window clicking on the '_' button. That makes GnomeMeeting
get listed in the window list as minimized. The 'X' button just closes
the window (or hides GnomeMeeting, as you prefer).
