when you type there should be a delete button

Answer 2

As far as I'm aware of you can't choose which passwords for IE to clear, if you use firefox there is an option to clear certain ones

Click Tools > Internet Options
Click the Content tab
Click the AutoComplete button
Uncheck Usernames and passwords on forms and Prompt me to save passwords if they are checked
Click the Clear Passwords button
Click OK to confirm

Answer 3

You must have administrative privileges to do this:

Start Menu > Control Panel > System

Click on the Advanced tab, then on User Profiles and Settings.

Then under User Profiles, select the profile you want removed and click on Delete.

Done

Answer 4

Never had that particul problem, but when you type in the first letter or two a box will appear just below with anything starting with those letters. If this happens just hilite them and click on the DELETE button...Hope this helps.
