Macbook making me log in every time I boot

[wutah]

So I have been over so many settings in system preferences its making my head spin. Every time I boot my macbook that is running snow leopard it makes me log in. This is a very recent thing and I honestly didn't do anything to make it happen. When the problem first started happening it would also have the spinning thing on the bottom of the screen for about 5 seconds at the blue screen when shutting down.
It doesn't do that as of lately though. If anyone knows how to stop it from making me log in every time I boot let me know. I will be checking back so if anyone wants to use ichat to log onto my computer to check settings let me know.

System Preferences -> Accounts -> Login Options -> "Automatic Login: Enabled"

System Preferences > Security > General

"Disable automatic login"

That one was good but once again that was already like that and the problem persists 🙁

What about repairing permissions via Disk utility?

Hmm nice, Im trying it now. It goes kinda slow but I understand it has to go through the whole hd. Ill let you know after It goes and I reboot.

It means nothing bad if that's what you're thinking.

Make sure the security preferences look like this :

haha Peace you are awesome! I feel like a dummy because I thought if it were checked it meant it wasn't going to log me in. The power of pictures helps!

Thanks again to everyone that helped, I was just a bit of an idiot. 😀
