This occurs when upgrading some Macs to Mac OS X 10.6 from a previous operating system, a system that already had SuperDrive Update 2.1 installed. According to the article:</p><ol><li>Open System Preferences and choose Accounts</li><li>Select your Admin account and click the Login Items tab</li><li>Highlight the Superdrive Update 2.1 checkbox</li><li>Click on the minus button and delete the item</li></ol><p>This should fix the problem.</p>
