[solved] kdesu pops up at login for unknown reason

Hi,

Every time I log in to my XFCE desktop, this dialog pops up:

The path /tmp/***** changes every time I log in. I have no idea what it's trying to run, and I always press cancel.

Is there a way I could track this down?

Thanks,

EDIT: I'm an idiot, the last time I tried to open the temp file it didn't work. A quick cat showed that the contents actually are:

#!/bin/bash
chown -h -R 1000 "/home/valandil/Dropbox"
chmod  -R u+rw "/home/valandil/Dropbox"
echo Done

Not sure why this runs at login, but I'll check it out.

What is that /tmp/tmpDLimy2?  You say it changes each time, but when you see this, that file exists, so look at the file it refers to.

What's in your XFCE startup programs?
