Anyone know how to turn off auto logon. I just reinstalled XP Pro on my computer and when I go to a specific website and type in my username and password, it asked me if I would like my computer to save the password, I click yes. And now when I try to login to my account to that website it closes Internet Explorer all together. I'm sure it's not the webiste, because I tried to login from another computer and it worked.

In Internet Explorer go to the toolbar and do the following.

Tools > Internet Options > Content (tab) > Auto Complete

Now uncheck all boxes and also click the clear forms and clear passwords boxes just for good measure and you should be all set.

good luck!

Joe,

You can turn auto-complete off by going into Internet Options in control panel...click on "content"...then "auto complete". Uncheck the boxes and close.

If turning auto complete off doesn't solve your problem, you may want to try doing a virus scan (don't forget to update your virus software first)

If that does no good, you can try re-installing Internet Explorer. Learn how to do that here.
