You have a background process called maximus running, which automatically maximizes everything.

You can remove the maximus process from the automatic startup sequence (System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications in normal Gnome GUI, I don't remember how it goes in netbook remix) and the normal behaviour should come back.

If you don't want to get rid of it totally, you can use gconf-editor to manipulate maximus' configuration (/apps/maximus) to exclude certain application classes from the maximization. However, getting things right piece by piece is not very easy.
