This countdown timer serves no useful purpose

I cannot remember/find anything with a timer. The attached image
settings turns my PC off when I click Log Out. With Confirm Logout
selected I also have to hit enter (or click an option), but no timer.
...None of the TDM Session Manager options invoke a logout countdown
timer. I'm wondering if the OP is using a different display manager,
e.g. KDM which has such a timer.
Here is one possibility - if the user instead of the classic Trinity menu
uses Kickoff menu, there is a countdown at logout / reboot / shutdown.
Perhaps
that is the case. I have attached an image of the window in
question. This did not appear when I was using OpenSuSE's KDE3 package.
To my knowledge, to set delay for logout / reboot / shutdown there are no
items in the UI. It is necessary to make an entry in the configuration
file kdeglobals, section General, variables confirmLogoutDelay,
confirmRebootDelay and confirmShutdownDelay.
