IE6 issue..
 

Do any of you know how to disable the automatic word recognition crap?? Not where you type in a url, but rather in any text field on a page.

example : where you enter your username for this board. the next time I come to enter it, after typing the first letter, it gives the a list of words that begin with that same letter that I've previously entered in that same box.

How do i stop it??


thanks!

I haven't really explored this issue fully, but I just searched thru the advanced options in my version of old IE5, and I think what you are describing is called inline AutoComplete. For ie5 go to Tools-->Internet Options-->then the advanced tab and look for something like autocomplete whatever. I'd say turn them all off. It'll probly work for ie6 also, just might have to dig for it.

hmm... i don't know. it never happens to me since i use a different program. i looked around in ie but i can't find where to switch it off.

sorry.

try using this program... http://members.directvinternet.com/maxvla/myie32de.zip
