Ok, I'll explain:

Windows nxclient starts NXWin in Multi-Window mode for "rootless sessions", 
which lead to the old behaviour of the NX Session Wallpaper.

Its properly fixed in 0.5.0, but this one is still in testing stage, so I can 
understand that you don't want to use that version yet.

So I gave you quick pointers for removing the "session wallpaper possibility", 
but you'll loose the ability to resume "rootless" sessions properly as they 
will be not rootless after resume anymore.

So, this is a quick WA, if you don't need it, wait for 0.5.0 (which might just 
be available in some months)
