When I do explicitly stop syncing and then try to get it started again it does not auto login or auto fill the form, no. But! When syncing is on is there ANY instance of the password stored locally? Because if there is the programs like http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/chromepass.html can easily pick up it and ALL you data in Google cloud and other accounts using Gmail box as the base will be compromised.
