Hi Guys

I am using Win 2000 Pro. The problem I am facing now is that I have
accidentally Checked on the Save Password when there is a dialog box prompt
to enter my User and Passwd whenever I access a certain site.

Now the password I entered could be wrong but I have already checked that box.

Do any of you guys know how to bring up that dialog box again so that I can
un-check it / undo it?

asswords. --- Steve

To be clear, the option Steve mentioned is within IE, and it
will clear all passwords.

Just type in the correct password the next time before submitting
when the form shows prefilled by autocomplete.

Thanks for the clarification! I never used autocomplete - just know how to
erase entries and disable it. --- Steve

I hear you Steve.
I am also mostly familiar with how to kill the feature.
