Chip;
I don't mean to belabor the topic. I did have the appropriate boxes checked ant my last reboot and the auto fill do not kick in for the password field. As soon as I completed the procedure I noticed the prompt to save the password as soon as I put the password in the field.

Thanks Lynn for posting all this!

just an FYI, instead of doing all the protected storage stuff (which you
only have to do if the checkboxes were not checked), you can just reboot,
and it will happen at the next boot.  that will save you some headaches.

hth,

Chip

For those who can not get IE to remember their password:

Here is the solution:


For Internet <http://windowsxp.mvps.org/ProtectedStorage.htm#>  Explorer
AutoComplete

Start Internet Explorer. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
Click the Content tab. Under Personal information, click AutoComplete. In
the AutoComplete Settings dialog box, select the User names and passwords on 
forms check box (if it is not already selected), select the Prompt me to
save passwords check box (if it is not already selected), and then click OK. 
Click OK again to close the Internet Options dialog box.

Click Start, and then click Run. In the Open box, type Services.msc,
and then click OK. The Services snap-in appears. In the Name list, locate
Protected Storage. Note the Status column. If Protected Storage is running, Started will appear under Status. If Protected Storage is not started, start 
it. To do this, right-click Protected Storage, and then click Start.

If the service is already started and running, Stop and Restart the
service.

LOL

Now I know how a geek feels.

Subject: Logging in on the BARD site using IE




Hello all:



I am using IE 8 and when I log onto the BARD site my email address
always shows up on a menu when I click in the edit field. I have auto forms 
turned on.



Now my password never shows up in the password field and I always
need to type this in.



Some people on the BARD talk mailing list have said their IE
remembers their password.



So how do I get IE to remember my password?



I have the appropriate boxes checked; I have forms checked along
with user names and password on forms checked under Internet options and
content.
