Clear Passwords from IE's AutoComplete

[Lalanthi Lawrence]

Internet Explorer's AutoComplete feature handily
remembers the user names, passwords and other data that
yu need to enter repeatedly in online forms, so you don't
have to type the data in every time.

If we don't want other users to use our passowrd, can we
delete/clear/block this option using registry settings.

Thanks
Lalanthi

I don't know how to do it automatically through a registry
setting change, but it is easy to do manually each time by
going to tools, internet options, content, autocomplete,
then clear passwords. Then make sure autocomplete isn't
switched on from that same location.

If your client if at least Win2K you can disable the saving of
usernames/passwords using Group Policy or local policy:
User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet
Explorer\"Do not allow AutoComplete to save passwords"
