When I start up iMac, Chrome automatically opens. How do I make it stop?

I have Safari, Chrome and Firefox as browsers. They are all in my dock. Safari is my default browser.

After I've shut down the computer, when I start up again, Chrome is the only browser that opens automatically at start up. I don't want any of them to do that. I've looked through preferences and can't find anything. I've looked in my Library:StartUpItems folder, but there seems to be nothing there.

How do I make Chrome stop starting?

Why are you posting to an old thread in the Leopard forum?

I found the answer to my question here. I searched for the answer to my question and this was the one that came out first. Apparently some software issues/annoyances do happen across different OS's. Who would have thought? 😉 Good thing this thread still exists.

No such thing as OPTIONS there. Do you know where this is hidden in 2016? Thanks in advance.
