Very likely this is because you have a CD in the drive, and the "autorun" 
program is running.  Autorun is started in the default KDE install by 
~/.kde/Autostart/Autorun.desktop, and when it sees a CD, it starts KsCD.  
Move that desktop file aside, kill autorun, kill KsCD, and you should no 
longer be plagued by an unwanted KsCD.
