Ok, give this a shot.

Open Internet Explorer.

Click "Tools" from the menu bar

Select "Internet Options" from the list

Click the "Content" Tab at the top

Click the "AutoComplete" button (it's located under Personal Information)

Here is where you Activate or Deactivate the AutoComplete Features
There are 3 features you can activate or deactivate.
1. Web addresses - Automatically suggest sites as you type.
2.Forms - Automatically List possible form entries such as your name or login name.
3. User names and passwords on forms - suggest user names and automatically fills in corresponding passwords (if the passwords were saved). The "Prompt me to save passwords" option forces Internet Explorer to ask you first before saving passwords.


I would suggest unchecking everything.
Hope this helps
