tomboy autostart in xfce, though not on autostart list

Hi,

So I recently upgraded, and switched to xfce at the same time (gnome's just gotten too heavy for my poor computer). When I start xfce, it starts tomboy notes, not once but many times, which is annoying because the window keeps popping up and getting in my way. So ps -ef looks like this:

Tomboy is not set to autostart on the sessions menu, and it is not in /user/share/autostart or in /etc/xdg/autostart. It is not in the autostart menu under gnome.

Advice?

Thanks!

I do not use xfce but try

Code:

$ find /home/yourname -name *tomboy* (or *Tomboy*)

Ok, I fixed it. I deleted everything in ~/.cache/sessions/ and restarted. Now no tomboys at all.

Thanks for the advice,
