Sounds like one of the relays is staying closed when it should open to disconnect power. Are you sure you've removed anything that can supply power to the car? What I mean is, did you use anything other than jump leads connected to the battery? If you apply power through the lighter socket it can do this.

This is a weird one.  :-/

Only thing I can think is the load drop on the system when the other car was jump started has caused a relay to stick open?

I await Marks suggestion....
