tramp error when typing slash

Hello,

I am using GNU Emacs 23.1.1 and the latest tramp from CVS.
I get the strange error that when I type / into the scratch buffer (or
any other buffer)
another buffer opens and promts the error message:

ssh: Could not resolve hostname C: Name or service not known

So the question is how can i get rid of this error or how can I prevent
tramp from starting when i type / ?

here is my .emacs

(add-to-list 'load-path
"~/emacs/tram/lisp/")                                                                                                                    

(require 'tramp)
(setq tramp-verbose 10)
(setq tramp-default-method
"scp")                                                                                                                

(add-to-list 'backup-directory-alist
             (cons tramp-file-name-regexp nil))

Cheers

Philipp

Surprising. I'm not aware, that *scratch* or any other buffer is
auto-evaluating typed text. How did you achieve this?

Does it also happen, when you simply start "emacs -Q"?

Does it also happen, when you start "emacs -Q -L ~/emacs/tram/lisp/"
(is "tram" a typo)?
