Do you run csh / (pd)ksh ??

If so, then you should have a .cshrc or .kshrc in your home directory.

As Sean has noted, if you use bash, it's .bashrc

Check and see what the file does: it probably sets up an extra path
variable to include extra stuff in your path.  It may set up
history size or some such.

Probably not vital - its a plain text file: you can cat it to find
out what it's trying to add.
