I don't understand. To explain the problem more clearly: I sit down in a 
cyber cafe in Tallinn, in which noone ever accessed my horde site (I can 
be quite sure of that as there are only half a dozen users and none of 
them ever visited Tallinn). I point the browser to my horde site, and 
one specific user is filled into the login screen. It is not my 
username, and this user never visited Tallinn. Actually I think that 
this is a bug under any circumstance, but if there is a config setting 
to turn it off I'd be happy.
