Hi, I have done the following in IE:

-IE-->Tools-->Internet Options-->Delete History, Remove Cookies, Delete Temporarily Files.

This removes my history and such, but it does not remove the text that are saved in text boxes, such as hotmail/gmail's login box, google's search box, etc. Basically when I start typing in these 'input boxes', the history pops out below what i'm typing.

Does anyone know where that history is so I can remove it? Thanks

Turn off in-line auto-complete Go to Tools, Options, Content, Auto-Complete.

From there, you can change your settings and clear history and passwords.
