The following bug has been logged online:

Bug reference:      4976
Logged by:          Jim Michaels
Email address:      jmichae3@yahoo.com
PostgreSQL version: 8.4.0
Operating system:   Windows XP Pro SP3
Description:        pgadmin - reconnect to drop database
Details:

1. after some database activity outside and inside pgadmin 1.10.0 rev
7945:7946,
in order to drop a database, you must first disconnect and reconnect.
this should not be so.

2. After creating a database outside of pgadmin, clicking the refresh button
will not usually show the new database.

3. oftentimes, I cannot drop a table without disconnecting and
reconnecting.

in other words, the connection is stale and intermittently broken.

It sounds like you might need to contact the pgadmin folks about this.
 A quick Google search suggests that you might want to start here:
