Based on this alone, it sounds as though you are running FACADE, which
allows you to set specific icons to come up instead of the generic disk
icons.  If your disks are called Untitled, they will have that Hello, my
name is icon.  It also modifies the get info box, as you found.  The next 
question is if you know you are using this INIT or if someone put it on
as a joke.
