Controlling the Auto-Complete feature
AutoComplete is certainly convenient, but the data is stored in encrypted form on your hard drive, so there's no simple way to directly edit the database. However, you can easily clear all the entries of different categories. In Internet Explorer 5, choose Tools > Internet Options, then click the Content tab. In the Personal Information box, select the Auto Complete button. You can then clear forms or clear passwords by hitting the appropriate button.
Alternately, you can delete a single item. Simply place the cursor in a text box you want to fill in, then click the down arrow to open the list of AutoComplete items for that box. Find an entry you want to delete, then just press the Delete key.
