[QUOTE="immdb, post: 384803, member: 1238"] If you have more than one user account on your computer, or if you want to keep your own information secure, you should require users to log in using a password. If you don't see a login window when you start up the computer, automatic login is enabled and you need to turn it off. To turn off automatic login: Open System Preferences and click Accounts. If settings are dimmed, click the lock icon and type an administrator name and password. Click Login Options and deselect "Automatically log in as." Choose how you want the login window to appear. "List of users" shows a list of user accounts and a box to type a password. "Name and password" requires users to type a user name and password. [/QUOTE]
