Here you go:

http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_a.htm

While there press CTRL + F
Type "autocomplete" without the quotes
Press Enter

You can just scroll but you might miss some entries. That is, really, all
you will likely want to know about autocomplete from the views of where it
came from. Passwords are stored in the registry, for example...

In the Registry.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\IntelliForms\SPW

They're encrypted, though.
