Oops, I forgot to mention I tried way back when using GNOME.  
Doing this action creates a ``puplet.desktop`` file in 
my $(HOME)/.config/autostart directory with the line:

X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false

I even pasted that line into the /etc/xdg/autostart/puplet.desktop 
file.  But still it starts.

And XFCE feeds off the same .desktop files.  I think I'll create a new
account and try it.  My home may be stale from the FC4 upgrade.

Thanks for the response!

Dave
