How to prevent IE from offer to remember password?

Apr 3rd, 2000 06:12
Martin Honnen, Yakov Simkin,


Go to 
  Tools->Internet Options->Content->Personal Information->Autocomplete
to disable the saving of usernames and passwords.
Also when you are asked to confirm that a password is saved you can 
tick a box to no longer save passwords
I don't think JavaScript can contribute to that. It might help to set
  <INPUT TYPE="password" AUTOCOMPLETE="off">
though I am not sure that will prevent IE from remembering the 
password. It should however prevent it from autocompleting the field 
with a remembered password.
