AutoComplete (Internet Explorer):

Brings up the AutoComplete dialog box where you can make changes and clear forms
and passwords.

Clear Google Toolbar History
If you have the Google Toolbar installed, Click on Google logo to access a drop

I am attempting to clear the autocomplete for forms and passwords. I can
navigate to the proper area within internet options, but the function hangs
and the task manager shows internet explorer to by non-responsive. I have
tried openning new browsers and restarting my computer. Nothing works. Any
suggestions? Please.

You will need to delete the information via the registry. You will find the
relevant key here:
