Yes, it's your cookies. Cookies keep you signed into forums like this (if you tick the "keep me signed in" box on the forum or webpage)

I don't know what it is you need to do tho to reset the password memory thing that Windows has tho (you know when you type a user name and password in and a box pops up saying "would you like Windows to remember this username and password for future" blah blah....

Thrush its just ive got this great little program called ccleaner which basically deletes ALL the crap from your pc, registry the lot, abit like disc cleanup but better and is alot quicker, first time i ran the prgramme it free up 800mb in about 40 seconds

Only thing was after i ran it i lost all the passwords/usernames to my websites so i just wanted to know what to tell the programme not to delete

Pretty sure that in internet options - content and then auto complete under the personal information box. Can choose to remove passwords that are stored etc etc
