Autocomplete Forms, Usernames, & Passwords

Suddenly my autocomplete forms, usernames and passwords does not work
anymore. Autocomplete web addresses does work fine. I have
checked/unchecked/rechecked the Tools | Options | Content | Autocomplete
entries in IE6. Anyone know any registry settings for these?

I apologize. The "New Question" box won't open. It will only let me reply to
an existing question.

..When I type in search words, in Google for instance, using Internet
Explorer, where is the memory of those search words stored? I have deleted
all the temp files I can find that seem related to the internet in any way.
Yet I can still type in a search word in Google and still get a message that
there are X number of files [mostly internet related] stored in my computer.
And I can still click on any one of them, and immediately pull up that
specific old web site. How can I get these files completely deleted?

I had disabled the Protected Storage Service. Re-starting and enabling this
service fixed the problem.

Thank you!

In IE go to Tools...Internet Options...Content tab....Autocomplete, then
click Clear Forms. This will remove all such entries in all boxes. If you
want to clear an entry individually, click on it to highlight it then press
the Delete key.
