I've done that. One would think, certainly, that telling it not to restore
the same session would prevent the autostarts, but it doesn't, and
Autorun.desktop appears to have nothing to do with anything but CD-ROM.
Mikey's suggestion to grep for x-applications is the only thing I have to go
on now, and I'm back in Algiers so can't try it on the affected computer for
a few days.
