I use Google Toolbar. Fill out the information once in its Options>Auto Fill tab and anytime you access a page with form fields, those highlighted in yellow can be filled out by clicking on its auto-fill button.

Both IE and Mozilla have autocomplete, in IE make sure that its turned on:
Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options > Content > Autocomplete and then turn on the information you want autocompleted.

There's a really handy plug in for firefox that lets you save data for forms (there's a toolbar button you click to save the current form) and have fill it in again next time (another button). I'm sure similar tools exist for ie, just be sure that they're not quietly snooping on where you surf.
