Are you clicking the logout button in the top left or just closing your web browser with the X in the top right?

Just closing the browser.

Closing the browser is the way to do it so no problems there.

The automatic login is cookie based so if anyone using your computer has cleared your cookies it will require that you log back in.

I hate remembering logins or having to type them in. I usually used the same login for all my sites but being in IT myself, knew this was not a good plan. I downloaded a password manager program called LastPass. This program can save all your login info for each site you are registered at. You do have to go to each site one by one and change the password to a difficult to guess version (can be generated by the program) and then save the site and login info. I set LastPass as my home page and then just click on the site name in the list and LastPass logs me in automatically.

There are other progams that do the same but this works on Explorer, Chrome, FireFox, Safari, etc. and it's free.
