[CentOS] Clock applet crashes

First things first:  Kernel 2.6.9-34.EL, CentOS 4.2, Clock Applet "Clock
2.8.1", calendar client is Evolution 2.0.2.

The problem:  when clicking on the clock applet to open the calendar
page all is well.  However, when clicking again to close the calendar
page, the applet crashes;  "The Application "clock-applet" has quit
unexpectedly."

Has anyone experienced this problem?  It's not a critical problem, but
can get annoying at times.

Thanks for any help out there,
Dick
