Stang's right. You have to click 'remember me' and log out when you're done. I was po'd about this when I was using internet cafes in europe. I'd never click 'remember me' because I thought it really meant that it'd remember me and that the next guy could theoretically log in to my account and post some tree hugging hippy crap.
If you log in without hitting 'remember me' and then surf, you're fine. As soon as you're dormant for ~10 minutes, it automatically logs you out. That 10 minutes could be the time it takes to write out a long post.
Trust me, click the 'remember me' box when logging in and then actually log out before closing the browser. You'll never be automatically logged out while online and nobody can get into your account afterward. Unless there's a password remembering option on, but in that case, it'd ask you if you want it to remember your password, to which you'd give a resounding NO.
