Did you just updated to Hardy? ;-)

If so, perhaps you are being hit by this bug in the scim installation
during one scim update (skim depends on scim), which would turned it
on for all users.

The problem is that they can't turn it off, as it would turn it off
for people that had meant it to be on.

If you think this is your case, the solution can be found here:
