SPAN the switch interface and see what is sourcing the BPDUs?

I did it several times, and each time, immediately the port went back to err-disable.  I finally drove over there, and with just the phone, the port stayed up.  plug in the PC, and the port will err-disable.  I removed some junk ware from his PC and cranked up the AV and Spyware protection, will see what happens.

When I do the "show err-dis reason" (I know it's not reason, I forget the syntax), the reason listed is "bpduguard".  How the heck do I trip a bpduguard with just a phone and PC?  have swapped out the cables too....
