crontab -l (to see what is crontabed)
crontab -d or -r (to remove the entry)

You have added the eggdrop startup thing in crontab so it's kinda normal this to hapen since you have deleted the .pid file. Try an "ps x" and see it's pid and kill it like kill -9 12345 (where 12345 is the actual pid).

Off topic..
It's not nice to mock this or any other guy just cos it's a newbie. Remember that you where like he is now and people didn't treated you like that. If you don't know an answer to it's question then let other persons to respond if knows. Thank you.

lol, good idea, but my bot's on a shell acount, so i can't reboot or run it over and as for lookin in the pid. file there's only one entry which is the current -working- bot. (I deleted the pid when starting up the new bot)

and now ive also got ANOTHER bot that's appeared, now i can ctcp to this one and issue the .die command, but after about 15 minutes it comes back... so i've now got 3 bots; 1 that works fine, 1 that doesn't do anything and comes back to life when killed, and one that doesn't do anything and doesn't listen to me.

everything i know about eggdrop i learnt in one night, so that's not an awful lot... but i don't think my bots shud be multiplyin like this

Or reboot pc, you could think about this even if you don't know anything bout eggdrops

... or drive over the box with a lawn mower or slap it with a big hammer or set it on fire ...

I setup an eggdrop bot on my channel (#neds / quakenet) yesterday, and it was working fine. However, this morning i realized that i'd made quite a few mistakes in the config file, so i made a new one. But when i tried to ctcp to my bot, which was still on my channel, it wouldn't reply, and i didn't set up the vhost in the config do i couldn't telnet to it. So i decided to delete the user file on my shell and start it up again by typing ./eggdrop -m . The bot started and joined my channel, however, the original bot is still in there, although it's not responding to anything, and when i kick it, it rejoins automatically.

Does anyone know how I can deactivate it? I could always just ban it.
