How to stop automatic login

Currently, I can log in just by clicking the login button (ID and password saved on site), and make a payment without any further security procedure. This is very unsafe, in case my computer is stolen, anyone will be able to make payments from it. How do I stop this and add at least one security step (enter password, payment code, etc) before the final payment?

Not sure what browser you are using so it may be a bit different but i go to top right of your browser top of page > options / settings > privacy / security > forms and passwords > leave the tick next to remember passwords on log in and click EXCEPTIONS next to it > then add Paypal as a site you don't want your password saved on.

You may need to clear history afterwards for it to have an effect.

Thank you for the tip. Come to think of it, I think I was able to make the payment without a further security step because the payee was already registered. If it is a new payee, I believe there is a further step. Thanks.
