Valerie,
If you use gdm/gnome-session to log in you could just manually remove
the the autostart desktop file :
/usr/share/gnome/autostart/gnome-keyring-daemon-wrapper.desktop
All desktop files listed here is what gnome starts up by default, pretty much
the same list that appears in gnome-session-properties dialog.
Strange how you are seeing this on a Non GNOME windowing system, what are you
using ?
Either way the daemon in question is :
/usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon
Which is launched originally (within a gnome session) by :
/usr/lib/gnome-session/helpers/gnome-keyring-daemon-wrapper
You may want to ensure both of these processes do not exist.
cheers
Matt
