   This happens when you configure your account to login automatically. If no   
   one else uses your computer, this is useless and easy to correct.   
      
   Open Passwords and Keys by typing:   
      
   seahorse   
      
   into a terminal.   
      
   Go to the Passwords Tab and there you will see a folder:   
      
   Passwords: Login   
      
   Right click *Login* and select *Change Password* in the resulting context   
   menu and reset permissions by entering your old password and leave blank   
   the new password fields that are asked for in the dialog box that appears.   
      
   Reboot and your problem should be solved.   
      
      
   Also, the login keyring will ask for the password if you have changed your   
   user password. To fix this, type your new password in the password fields   
   following the instructions above.
