This is usually done via group policy, and it's usually a good thing. I
personally want to clear the last login name.
As to where it's been done - are you on a domain?
 
This is easy to set through group or local policy, however it can also be
done through a straightforward registry hack.
Look in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

And I think the value is called "DontDisplayLastUsername" - this should be
set to 0 to retain the last user name.
