The AutoComplete feature suggests possible matches for entries you type in the Address bar, a Web page form, or a user name or password box on a Web page. When you first type a user name and password on a Web page, you receive the following prompt:

• Do you want Windows to remember this password, so that you don't have to type it again the next time you visit this page?

NOTE:  There is also a Don't offer to remember any more passwords check box that turns off the AutoComplete feature for user names and passwords on forms.
