    Turn off Auto Complete:

    Internet Options > Content tab > AutoComplete > uncheck the boxes and clear the history.

    Go to the Internet Options window and clear the history. Also clear the files and offline files too.

    Try shutting down Internet Explorer after you have made these modifications, and restarting it. I've ran across a lot of Windows applications that require a reboot/restart after modifications in order for them to work!

    Yeah that is another thing. But I thought it would come as common sense, maybe since I'm so used to it.
