Nope, I just searched through my entire script, the only things I lock 
is the screen occasionally, but even that I don't do near where I quit.

I created a new stack, and made a quick script in the stack script of:
on shutDownRequest
--display an answer dialog, quit if the user clicks "Don't Quit"
end shutDownRequest
and when I hit command-Q, it did not pop up.  Is my copy of MetaCard 
being weird or something?
