Could be an accidental click on something obscure. I have no idea what that
may be. If it only happens when you login as yourself but not logged in as
root or an alternate user, you should be able to solve it by resetting your
all your KDE3 personalizations. To do that, log out of X, switch to any of
the virtual consoles and log in, then delete ~/.kde, then log back into X.
You'll have to redo most of your desktop personalizations, but that should
kill the subject problem.
