: Look inside your Boot system - particularly the Predesk directory - and

: Find it and remove it.

And if that doesn't work, look for a file called 'x' in the root directory of
the boot drive.  There are others, too ('softload' for those with 3.8,
'repeat' on older machines without *repeat on ROM, a number of others I
can't recall ATM), and it's bloody irritating when it happens.
