Clear Passwords From IE's AutoComplete

Internet Explorer's AutoComplete feature handily remembers the user names, passwords, and other data that you need to enter repeatedly in online forms, so you don't have to type the data in every time. But what if a certain password you recorded there has changed, or if you don't want to make your passwords available to other users of the PC?

To remove a user name and password from IE's encrypted database, visit the site where you enter them, double-click the site's user name or user ID field, select the user name you want to remove in the drop-down field, and press Delete.

To erase all AutoComplete data, choose Tools, Internet Options, Content, AutoComplete, Clear Passwords.
