Answer 1

AutoComplete

Internet Explorer's AutoComplete feature lets you more quickly fill out web forms and navigate to websites you have visited in the past. AutoComplete collects and stores in the registry on your computer the data you type in web form text boxes and the address bar. If you choose to use AutoComplete for passwords, they will be stored encrypted on your computer. AutoComplete information is not shared with other users of your computer.

The first time you submit a web form, you will see a message box that asks if you'd like to turn the AutoComplete functionality on. To turn AutoComplete off and clear AutoComplete's history:
1.
In Internet Explorer, click the Tools button, and then click Internet Options.

2.
On the Content tab, in the AutoComplete section, click Settings. In the AutoComplete Settings dialog box, uncheck the appropriate check boxes for the AutoComplete options you do not wish to use.

3.
To clear AutoComplete or web address history, click the General tab. Under Browsing History, click Delete. In the Delete Browsing History dialog box, click the Delete Forms and Delete Passwords buttons.

4.
To clear web address entries, follow the steps for Clear History below.


Google is your friend. Use it.
