Ok, so I’m retarded. I misspelled my username when logging into gmail, and didn’t notice. It is a new install, and so it’s still at the “remember this?” stage for everything, and I chose to have it remember my login. Well, now when I click into the username box in gmail I get a dropdown of my usernames (I have several different ones for various uses) and now there is, to my shame, the stupid misspelled one in the list.

How can I remove it?

Tools\>Options\>Security\>Show Passwords\> Highlight username you don’t want saved and click remove. See if that works.
