Hi. I just got a used hard drive to put in my SE/30, and there seems to be an
INIT showing up that I can't locate on the disk. I'll try to descibe it:

 - Its icon (displayed on startup) looks like a box with a hammer in it,
   with a telephone on the front of the box, and what appears to be a 
   screwdriver or soldering iron sticking out of the side.

 - I think its responsible for creating an empty folder called
   "Communications" in my system folder.

 - I've looked for invisible files with ResEdit and Disk Tools. No dice.

 - I've tried reinstalling the system software and even rebuilding the
   desktop. This doesn't help either.

I would appreciate it if someone could at least identify it and/or tell

me how to remove it. Thanks in advance.
