Go to your home directory and look for the hidden directory 
(.Autostart). There you will find a file that controls your automatic CD 
mounting. Just delete it. That will stop Konqueror from coming up. I am 
not sure exactly where it is because I already deleted mine quite some 
time ago. But that's where the problem is.
