terminal suddenly closing

[Zammy-Sam]

I know, this is the worst time to post anything beside the WWDC, but I can't fix this problem on my own and I need some help.
Today I started my terminal for a bbedit script and my terminal suddenly completed on startup. I tried several times and I got the error message:
'
Last login: Mon Jun 23 16:31:10 on ttyp3
/tmp/501/Cleanup\ At\ Startup/2913058.command; exit
Welcome to Darwin!
[dhcp24-87:~] sammy% /tmp/501/Cleanup\ At\ Startup/2913058.command; exit
/tmp/501/Cleanup At Startup/2913058.command: Command not found.
logout
[Process completed]
'

So, what's going on? I tried different shells such as bash, sh, zsh...
None working. I supposed something messed with my shells. I started from the 10.2.4 DVD and ran the disc-utilities to see, whether there is something wrong with the file-system. I had just few right-probs, but nothing more. Repaired and still the same problem.
X11 is working just fine. So, I started searching for that "2913058.command", but it's nowhere...
(I used this line in X11:
'nice find -d / -type f -exec grep -H 2913058 {} \; 2> /dev/null'
)

So, anyone any ideas? I found ppl having a similar probs 2 years ago, but none of their solutions helped me out.
Ahhhh, btw: I set up a new user-account and tried over there. Working just fine. So, it's just messed on my user-account..

tnx!

My guess is that something has messed-up your Terminal preferences file.

where do I find that Terminal preferences file, so I can check out what is messed?

::ha::

Just in case someone else might have a similar problem: I FIXED IT!!!!

Ok, first of all: I have no idea how this one happened, but let me tell you guys what I did.

I was searching in the /Users/xxxxx/Library/Preferences/ folder for the terminal.plist and I found this file:

com.apple.Terminal.plist

Under the '<key>ExecutionString</key>' line I found this:
'<string>/tmp/501/Cleanup\ At\ Startup/2913058.command; exit</string>'

God knows where this line came from, but I deleted the line between <string></string> and ET VOILA!!!!!
Everything is working just fine now!

Shall we make this a how_to_do?
