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....

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
