(Are you really on OS X 10.5.3 as per your profile? These instructions work for Lion\Mountain Lion/Mavericks)


A couple of things to check: System Preferences>Users & Groups>Login Items tab - make sure Automator is not listed.


It could also be part of OS X's Resume feature causing it to launch. Any application that is open at Shutdown?restart will relaunch unless you deselect the tick box shown in the image below:
