Well, you should have to log in each time, that is the way VNC works. Now, if you leave a program open when you quit VNC, it should be there next time you log in. Is that not happening?

the other thing is its the gnome enviroment when i connect is thier another .vnc folder somewhere?

Each user running a vncserver will have their own .vnc folder. Probably the easiest way to figure this out is to log in to port 5801, open a console, and then enter
whoami. That will tell you the user that starts that vncserver.

it asked a password .....its not the same password as 5801 !!! now it say too many attempts lol im locked out of my pc (over vnc atleast) how do i reset the password ?

No, its not the same password and it shouldn't be. Each user will set their own password for vncserver, so this should be the password you set the first time you ran vncserver as that user. If you need to unlock the password, get into the .vnc directory for that user and delete the passwd file, or just delete the whole .vnc directory. The next time you run vncserver for that user, it will be re-created and will ask you for a new password.

i get the feeling that theres a feww too many vnc applications running maybe susee and gnome have one of thier own thats running straight away?

Well, since yours started on screen 4, that means there are 3 other instances of vncserver running. They may not be from different users however. Every time you run the command vncserver, it starts a new session, even if that user already has one running (in other words, the same user can have multiple vnc sessions running). When vncserver starts, it always grabs the first available screen, starting with :1. By the way, if you want to stop a particular vncsession, the command is:
vncserver -kill :X Where you replace X with the screen number you want to start. So to stop your screen :4, the command would be vncserver -kill :4
I suppose it is possible that Suse has set up a vncserver to run by default. That strikes me as a weird thing to do, but I suppose it is possible. Like I said earlier, I would find out which user is running the one on 5801 with whoami and we can go from there.
