name/address "prompts"

[M Glazebrook]

This may be a Windows 98 question rather than IE6. When
filling in forms on-line, pop-up "prompts" are often
called up automatically. For example, if you put in the
first letter of your e-mail address, then a number of your
e-mail addresses may pop-up allowing you to hightlight the
one you want. My question is: where are these items
stored in the computer? I'd like to be able to edit them
down to the current essentials.

Would appreciate any help on this.

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.
