Default PASSWORD QUESTION

When I go onto Ebay or Paypal or similar sites with a password and enter my user name, when I click onto the password box, my password comes up automatically.

Is there any way I can switch this feature off, or stop it happening.

I am not the only person who uses this machine see, and its not very secure.
Sure its fairly straight forward, just dont know how.

Cheers, Daz

Do you log out at the end of the session or just close the page?

I always log out, yes.

Even if I do clear history, delete cookies, remove all offline content ect.. It still can do it.

It's just a bit unsecure if you know what I mean. Wondered if there may be a standard setting on my computer to stop this happening that I dont know about.

From internet options/properties, select the content tab then the AutoComplete box & then uncheck the Usernames and passwords option. You can also clear all previously saved password history here.
