When I log on to the internet, myebay is my home page. It automatically opens without me putting in a user ID or password. I do not like this; how do I change

I used to need to enter my user ID and password when the internet opened to access my home page which is myebay. Somehow, recently, that magically changed and myebay comes up without me using the user id or password. I do not like that. How can I change it back so I need to enter my user id and password before my ebay comes up. I tried tools, options, content but autocomplete does not come up under content.

Remote cache and cookies and when do you log in again to the site just make sure do not allow it to save Ur username and password. If it still goes on reset the browser.
