How to disable ctl-alt-shift-break Xwindows Kill in Unix

A "buddy" of mine thinks it's funny to do the Unix equivalent of the Windows three-fingered salute on my HP-UX workstation. This is irritating and I have lost work a couple of times from things that I was working when X got killed.

Is there any easy way to disable this feature? I have never actually had to use it in the past and I won't miss it. I could xmodmap one of the keys to something else but I'd rather find a more elegant way since I occassionally use all of these keys in some other function.

If you know how to do it in Linux, it will probably work under HP-UX v.11i.

Thanks for your help.
 
Option "DontZap" "boolean"
This disallows the use of the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace sequence. That sequence is normally used to terminate the X server.
When this option is enabled, that key sequence has no special meaning and is passed to clients. Default: off.
