I accidentally clicked "Save Password" to a web-based
email login and I cannot find a way to deleted it out of
this computer.

Is there a way to delete it? So far deleting cookies is
the only thing I could figure (Help files seem non-
existant for this item) and that did not do it.

How do I access the saved password list for webpages in
order to delete or purge entries?

Thanks.

Frank, this seems to be an ongoing problem for everyone.
Why doesn't MS find a way to solve it?
 
Bill,
Go to the login page. Type the first letter of the username. Select that
username in the drop-down box. (Just put the pointer on it.) Hit the delete
key.

And, you may not need it this time, but get
Protected Storage PassView from http://www.webattack.com/get/pspv.shtml
Someday you'll need it. ;-)

Click to expand...

Is this an AutoComplete userid/password pair?
You can delete them by deleting the userid
as if it was a standard AutoComplete form data item.
You will get a message which indicates that that will cause
both the userid and the password to be deleted.
Then if you try to use the same userid/password pair again
you will be given the same prompt again.
