iGoogle Issue

My wife's iGoogle account automatically opens Gmail when she goes to Google. It does it on both IE and Firefox and even does it when she logs in using my computer.

I've googled the issue but I didn't have any luck. I went through all of her account settings without any luck either. Has anyone seen this before?

    What do you mean "opens"? Like, does it open another tab/window with gmail?

    are you sure she didn't just expand the gmail window on her homepage? I'm not sure window is the right word, but there's a 'back to normal' icon in the upper right if she has.

    this is the "new" igoogle with all the shit on the left hand side. It's annoying as hell but you can turn it off.

    If she has a gmail widget or whatever on her iGoogle site it started doing this a few months ago for me. It loads the iGoogle site, but then when the gmail widget loads it refreshes to the Gmail login page. If she stays logged in, it shouldn't happen, or if she removes the gmail from the homepage it shouldn't happen.
