OSX Leopard - auto minimizing annoyance

Ok when I first got my macbook I set some setting that I thought would be useful but now find it annoying

My problem is I dont remember where I found it

I have it set to when the mouse cursor goes into the far left corner it automatically clears the screen of all the windows
Doesn't really minimize, just moves all windows off screen

How do I turn it off?
really sucks mid-game and WoW slides off the screen!!
I will admit it does it very smoothly so its fast to move back and forth

How to revoke "show desktop"

You've probably already found this by now but it's an Expose setting. Go to System Preferences, Expose and Spaces, select the Expose tab, and the set the upper left "Active Screen Corners" drop-down to "-" or something other than "Desktop".
