Default Problem w/ starter cranking non-stop when car is off.

Friend of mine has a big problem on his 92 Accord LX automatic.

Turned on the car, and the car idled rough. So he turned it off and restarted the car and it was idling rough again, so he turned it off. Then the problem is the starter kept cranking. He runs inside and gets tools to disconnect the battery which stops it after it cranks for a few mins as he runs inside. He tried reconnecting the battery terminal a bit later but the starter keeps cranking.

any ideas guys? thanks!

First thing is try unpluging the smaller 'signal' wire to the solenoid, if it still happens, smack the crap out of the starter, if it still spins the starter; I'd suspect a bad starter
