Click on start/ control panel/ internet options and go to the content
tab.Click on auto complete and click on clear forms. OK your way out. You
can adjust what auto complete does from this also.

Another illustration of the adage that there are always at least 3 ways to do
everything with Microsoft. Here's a third: right click the Internet
Explorer icon on the desktop and select Properties. Go to the Content tab
and select AutoComplete. Select Clear. . . Another way to get to the same
place.
