The history of most recently used commands from the Run command on the Start menu are stored in the following registry location: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RunMRU Using Autocomplete in Web Forms

A new attribute that can be used in 
tags. The attribute is "AUTOCOMPLETE," and when it is set equal to "OFF," AutoComplete will not be used for the entire form that follows. Example: AutoComplete can also be disabled on a per-field basis using the same attribute. This time, the attribute is located in the input field.

For instance, when the user begins typing in an INPUT type=text field, the AutoComplete box presents a list of suggestions. The list of suggestions is saved in an encrypted store on the user's computer and is not accessible to Web sites. Because the user interface is integrated with the browser, it is streamlined with the Web page and transparent to the user. Individual Web sites do not need to make any changes to their content to use AutoComplete.

AutoComplete encrypts data for the AutoComplete box in a primary data store based on the NAME attribute of the INPUT type=text element. The information is shared among sites that include INPUT type=text elements with the same NAME attribute.... User information saved in the AutoComplete data store is safeguarded, because Web sites cannot automatically fill in forms using the data store, and a login page facade cannot fool the browser into surrendering the information due to domain-specific security.
