I have added azureus to the autostart programs. The session preferences
offer the option to deactivate individual autostart entries. I tried to
disable azureus temporarily. However, regarless of being marked as
inactive, the program is started each time I log on.

Here is the contents of ~/.config/autostart/azureus.desktop:

Hi,

I don't have such a problem on my system. Can you make sure this is a
problem in GNOME and not something in Azureus by adding something else
as autostart (say gcalctool) and setting it as disabled?

Version: 2.14.3-5

I'm closing this bug as there have been no activity, or no response to
followup questions, and new releases of the package in question which
likely has fixed this bug or made it obsolete.

Feel free to reopen the report if you think the bug still is valid.
