I'd bet there's something else starting up rsync besides cron. Possibly a script in periodic, possibly a startup/init script, possibly something in another crontab, possibly inetd/xinetd.

Check ALL the possible locations for things that periodically get fired off to startup programs, and get back with us - that means all the crontabs, everything in init.d / rc.d or whatever your OS uses, /etc/periodic if applicable, the AT queue, inetd, the whole nine. I sincerely doubt that rsync itself is randomly firing off instances of itself without being asked to.

OK, I'm stumped.
