Saved Passwords

I have saved a couple of passwords for accessing various
websites. This was in response to the message "this
computer can store your password" or some such.

Anyone know how to reverse the process or access the
password list to make changes?

I'm running Windows XP Pro and IE6.

Thanks, Kurt
 
Hi.
Does anyone know where exactly the User IDs and Passwords are stored? Is it
there a file containing all user IDS and Pwds? What is its name and
extension?
Thank you.
 
Search your system for *.pwl.
