Hey Brigid,

I totally understand. I pulled this from the Help drop down menu bar in
Internet Explorer:
To adjust AutoComplete settings

You can configure AutoComplete to save and suggest only the information you
want. You can choose whether to use AutoComplete for Web addresses, forms,
and passwords, or not use it all. You can also clear the history for any of
these.

In Internet Explorer, on the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
Click the Content tab.
Under Personal information, click AutoComplete.
Select the check boxes for the AutoComplete options you want to use.

Hope this helps!

Best Regards

With no programs open,
Run REGEDIT and make your way to this key:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\IntelliForms\SPW]
Export that key (Registry> Export.) If you you wish to undo the change,
doubleclicking on that REG file will restore the original registry key.
Then delete the SPW key.
Restart the computer.

If these steps do not resolve your problem, please post back to this thread
with the details and any error messages.

Hope this helps
