When I log into my system (NST NSv2.2, 16/250+1.2), I've been getting a  
spinning cursor between the time that my dock appears and when the file viewer  
appears.  It has been taking longer and longer, and today, I got a "?" file  
whose name was a list of all the entries in my home dir!

I've halted the system, rebooted, exited the Window server, fsck'ed, and  
nothing seems to help.  Other accounts on the machine come up normally quick -  
what's wrong with mine?  Any help will be greatly appreciated!  Thanks!
