Email/User login info IE6

Oct 10, 2006 6:34PM PDT

When logging into some passwordr protected websites, when you start to type in your ID/Email sometimes yit will open a scroll of all previously entered info. Since my now departed kids had numerous accounts and emails this can be filled with lots of extra entries. How do I clear the log/buffer or whatever it may be, to start with a clean slate.

Any Info??

Thanx

Clean out Autocomplete...

You can clean that out by going Tools->Internet Options->Content->AutoComplete and click both "Clear Forms" and "Clear Passwords." You can also disable AutoComplete on certain types of information by unchecking the boxes.

Hope this helps,
John
