It's because you installed fink once and it is no longer installed. (I
hate fink.) You could track down which of the files fink modified and
delete the line referring to the /sw/bin/init.csh file. (look in
~/.tcshrc and ~/.login first)

If you don't find anything you could try to put a dummy file in that place:
 mkdir -p /sw/bin
 touch /sw/bin/init.csh

(You probably will need to prefix both commands with 'sudo' and enter
your password at the prompt the first time.)
