I share my computer with my wife. When I login in I am asked for a password. How do I remove this feature.

Cant seem to find the option
 
System Preferences...System...Accounts....Login Options...Automatically Log In as Username.


Of course this is automatically log the computer in on one account and when you want to shift to the other you will still need to enter a new password. There's no getting around that if you each have seperate accounts.

This seems like incredibly unsafe computing. The loss or theft of your computer is more than enough to perform identity theft for just about anyone.

I guess it is safe to assume that you do not use File Vault 2 either.
