No supervisor password set. Remove the main batt and the back-up 3V cell, the POP should be gone.

That is because you may have a locked drive inside.
The password icon for the drive shows a cylinder.
Quick solution: replace the drive.

HD security tools are also useful if you have more locked drives around there
