My first suspicious software utility is Degrader. If you click on SurviveResets, then every time you reboot warm-start it remembers the last settings you used.
I would NOT recommend clicking "SurviveResets" unless you tend to use your Amiga as a game machine all night long. Always click on "SurviveReset" so on the next reboot it'll set up the enviroment and exit immediately. Your reboot afterwards will return your Amiga back to normal.
If you're using static RAM, it can remember for a short while after you turn off your computer for a very short time. Possibly, but not always, degrader settings can be retained and can be performed again. If you keep it off for a minute, that'll wipe out RAM completely.
Hoep this helps...
