    I'm using MS IE7 for browsing which has an autofill function. Trouble is, I can't for the life of me remember how to change the personal details it autofills. Probably obvious but I can't see it. Anyone help? S

    Delete it and redoing it might work for you:

    Double-click inside the form field where you normally enter your user name. This will bring up a dropdown list showing all your saved AutoComplete user names.

    Point (not click) to the one you want to remove, so that it is highlighted, and then hit the Delete key.

    Once gone, login again. You should now get the autocomplete box again.

    Thanks for the reply. Looks like I didn't provide enough info. my problem is not with this site log in, thats ok. my issue is with other forms that IE7 autofill can complete. issue is that I have a new mobile number and the autofill still uses my old one. i can change it each time but it's just a bit of a pain. If I can get in to edit the personal details i can change whatever I need to. I'm using office 2007 if that makes any difference. Rgs
