I do not have automatically login with last profile selected, and I do 
not log out when I put my laptop into standby.  I also have it prompt me 
for a password when I resume.  But exodus does not remember it's state 
when it was put into standby, so as Peter Millard requested, I'll file 
this as a bug.
