you have the command 'biff y' in your .cshrc file.  Move it to your
.login file.

Also you should test to see if you are in an interactive shell before
executing parts of your .cshrc file

The follwing is part of my .cshrc file...

set path=(/usr/ucb /bin /usr/bin /usr/hosts /local/bin /etc .)
# 
# Check to see if this is an interactive shell...
if ($?prompt) then
 echo -n 
 set history=50
 set prompt="`whoami`@`hostname | sed 's/\..*//'` ! "
 alias	rn	'rn -S'
endif
