Stupid computer Question.

OK, know how IE "saves" the fields you enter?

How do you empty them? I let some folks use my computer and I would like their stuff off my machine.

Go to Internet Options, then to Content.

Click on "AutoComplete" and you can clear the passwords, you can select what profile you want used by clicking on "My Profile."

alternatively, make them use a guest account. The history is still there, but it won't show up when you're using [that damned] explorer



Well it was a case of "Hey, can I jump on your computer and check my email?"

In addition, make sure you clear your history. If a site isn't well protected, sometimes clicking on the address in the address field (when you start typing, it displays a dropdown of similar addressses), it can bypass the passwords and take you straight in. My computer is set to clear history every day.
