I have just noticed that auto complete no longer seems to work on my
computer. I am running XP Pro and I recently went to a site where I was
prompted to enter my username and password, XP asked if I wanted it to
remember my id & password, I clicked yes but the next time I went to the
site I had to log in as I did the first time, and XP once again asked if I
wanted it to remember the data. Needless to say it didn't remember it. I
have since noticed that I have the same problem on all sites that I have to
log into with an ID & Password. I have not changed anything on my computer
lately except the Windows security updates, Has anyone any idea why it no
longer works, and more importantly any idea how to fix it?
Thanks in anticipation

Hi Peter,

This works for AutoComplete as well:
