Network share auto logs in

Hey guys, I'm not much of a mac user. Hence the (I suspect) easy question.

I have a user at work who has our only mac. I've showed her how to connect to our network share. The problem is that it now auto connects upon startup which is a bit of a security issue. How do I stop it from doing that so it asks for a username/password everytime she tries to connect?

You can go into Keychain Access on the Mac (Applications->Utilities) and delete the credentials. Then, when you connect the next time, just don't have the 'Remember' box checked.

In theory, this will work, but I have never done it.
 
Also, if you go in to the User preference panel, there are a list of login/startup items. Remove the drives from that list.
