Autocomplete Popup Window

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

I have recently started getting an annoying popup window appearing asking if
I want to turn on autocomplete. I have been using XP for about two years
and this has just started.

How do I get rid of it as I keep clicking on NO, and shouting at the
computer at same time, but there is no option like "do not ask me this
again" to check?

Launch Internet Explorer and from the Toolbar select:
Tools > Internet Options > Content > AutoComplete.
Then remove all checkmarks and click OK.

Don't you feel a little silly shouting a machine?

Carey,

Thanks for the suggestion, but there are no check marks.

Any other ideas?
