    1. Hi wiktor,
      I read somewhere that if you have more than 1 user, the logout button will appear. I haven't tested it though... I guess they don't see the use for it for single user setup. Anyway, I'm glad I helped somebody, come visit here again!

      Thanks!

  2. yep, just tried it. Add a new user and 'Log Out' appears in immediately in the drop down.
