Internet ExplorerMicrosoft Internet Explorer can store website usernames and passwords as they are entered. This can save remembering the passwords for each site you visit, which helps foster the concept of using different passwords for different sites. However, the stored passwords mean anyone who uses your system can access the web sites' content, so some or all of the passwords stored by the system may need to be removed. To Clear All Passwords- In Internet Explorer, choose Internet Options from the Tools menu.
- If you wish to prevent Internet Explorer storing passwords in future, uncheck User names and passwords on forms.
- Click OK to close the Autocomplete Settings dialog.
