For something as potentially obnoxious as that, an easily thrown switch
to enable/disable it. It is NOT in /etc/init.d.

No such critter on this wheezy box.
Now I am puzzled. This machine just did an unrequested reboot. I have
gkrellm watching things and I don't see a thing out of line. Temps are
all 40C or below, voltages are nominal + maybe 5%, stable as always. I
had to kill several copies of kmail before I found them all, then
restarted bin/mailwatcher, and it restarted kmail at exactly where it
was shut down. One of those things that make you go hummmmm.
Twasn't a power bump, there was no blink to the overhead lights, and
there is a ups that will run it right past a failure long enough to
start the 20kw standby. So I have not a clue.
