How can I clear deleted E-mail accounts and thier associated passwords? I have changed ISP and would like to remove these from memory. I deleted them in Internet Options but they still show up in my system explorer.

O.S. Windows XP with Outlook Express

I guess my real question is "How Can I Edit the AutoComplete File or Folder in Windows XP"? There are some entries which have been deleted but are still in the history portion, I don't want to lose current active names and passwords.

try this

Download TFC to your desktop
  • Open the file and close any other windows.
  • It will close all programs itself when run, make sure to let it run uninterrupted.
  • Click the Start button to begin the process. The program should not take long to finish its job
  • Once its finished it should reboot your machine, if not, do this yourself to ensure a complete clean
