so, when you're typing in a password for the first time, windows offers to
remember it for you. i don't want to do that, but i accidentally clicked on
it and now my VERY IMPORTANT passwords are saved on my laptop and i don't
know how to un-save them. please help!

Open IE, click tools, options, content, auto-complete, delete them and
disable the feature.

Launch Internet Explorer and from the Toolbar select:
Tools > Internet Options > Content > AutoComplete.
Then click on "Clear Passwords".
