Bug Description

After installing Alarm Clock I have noticed that the default is for the application to start automatically at login. Personally, I'd prefer to choose this for myself but I can change it in the preferences.

The bigger problem is that every other user on this computer now has it in their system tray and they are very annoyed with me :)

I would expect that other users of the system should not even know about this application unless they search for it in the dash.

When built from source, alarm clock should not start automatically at login. Which Linux distribution are you using?

Ubuntu 12.04. Is "possible" that it was started by the user unknowingly and
then became added to the list of startup applications, but they tell me
that's not the case.
