I'm the bloke who posted this bug, and it's now stopped happening, so
either an update worked, or some of my fiddling around did.

Here's what I think I did, but it's very possible that step 4 was all I
needed to do, so maybe just try that first.

One slight warning - doing this I've lost all the details about my wifi
connection - signal strength etc. from the top right of the menu. I'm
sure there are things I can download to give me that information, but
it's not important to me so I haven't bothered.

1. Switched back to putting in my password and login at boot (ie went into 
System/Administration/Login window Security tab  and I turned off enable 
automatic login and rebooted), then made sure all my updates were up to date in 
System/Administration/Update Manager).
2. In System/Administration/Network I went into the wireless connection and 
turned off "Enable Roaming Mode" and put in my wireless details - WEP key, SSID 
etc.
3. Rebooted and made sure wifi was still working.
4. Went back into System/Administration/Login window Security tab, turned back 
on enable automatic login, and clicked off the checkbox that says "Deny TCP 
connections to X-Server"

Next time I booted it went straight in without prompting for anything.

Hope this helps anyone else in the same boat.

Karl.
