I've not tried this but it might work...

Go to start menu / Run and type WAB

This will open the windows address book and you should see an entry for the user you're logged on as (Mine says 'David' for example)

Double click that and you should be able to edit your personal information then save it.

I can't seem to find any documented way of doing this so I would say the only way might be to delete all the current data (internet explorer / internet options / Delete browsing history / delete forms data) and start again
