Paul,

What's running is part of the normal SBS logon script that kicks off
whenever a domain controller logs on a new user. The script is found
on the domain controller, and lives in "C:\WINDOWS\SYSVOL\sysvol\[name
of your domain]\scripts. By default, it's called
"SBS_LOGIN_SCRIPT.BAT".

Open this file up using any text editor, and your can remove the
offending command - as with anything to do with SBS, however, remember
to take a backup of the file first!

Cheers,

Stuart B.
