It is a window manager thing. The default setup for most WMs is to provide decorations (title bar etc) for all windows not marked as "transient" (which are basicly popups - menus etc). The solution is to configure your window manager to not decorate that particular app. As Reuben remarks, this is easy in FVWM and tractable in most others. Personally, I don't use title bars or borders at all. Makes for a much nicer desktop to my eyes.
