Bug Description

Supposing I have 3 windows (same or different programs) running and I select the checkbox system->preferences->startup app->options->automatically remember.... and I log out.
The next time I log back in the 3 windows are up at the startup (as expected)
Now without closing any of the windows I de-select the above option. And I log out and log back in.

The 3 windows (the same programs) are still running!(it should not happen as at start-up the previous session should not be remembered anymore!!)

Same here. I've unticked the "Automatically remember ... " option but to no avail. It seems the option is still activated.
