Does your trash can ever empty itself?

So, I just rebooted recently, and when I logged back my trash can started to empty itself automatically. And when I saw 90,000+ files being deleted, I was a little worried that something nefarious was going on. Has this ever happened to you? And is there anyway to make this work outside of your computer too? I always hate taking out the trash.

Hey... how did you know I was running Tiger...?
I guess that means it's suppose to do that or something. Okay, I guess this signals the death of this thread.

Maybe some setting that deletes files older than (for example) 2 days?!?

OS X's trash will 'go clean' if you kill the finder.
