I'll attempt to teach you two things at once here. One is the answer to
your question, the other is how easily you could have gotten the information
so in the future you might find these answers easier on your own.
To adjust AutoComplete settings
You can configure AutoComplete to save and suggest only the information you
want. You can choose whether to use AutoComplete for Web addresses, forms,
and passwords, or not use it all. You can also clear the history for any of
these.
1. In Internet Explorer, on the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
2. Click the Content tab.
3. Under Personal information, click AutoComplete.
3. Select the check boxes for the AutoComplete options you want to use.
And the second lesson is that whole spill is found on your computer right
now.
1. Open Internet Explorer.
2. Click on "Help" and select "Contents and Index".
3. Select the "Search" tab.
4. Type in the search word - in this case "autocomplete" (without the
quotes).
5. Double click on the topic you wish to display (in this case, "Adjust
AutoComplete settings".
6. Adjust your search accordingly if needed.
This type of help is available on most applications, including Windows XP
itself from the Start Menu.
