Running Visa Home Prem 32Bit. I have 2 PC's each running Visa Home Prem
32bit. and IE7. On my older PC, when I go to a Webpage that requires
information to be entered, a dropdown Window opens providing selection...you
click on the correct one and it saves a lot of typing. This is so for forms
that need to be completed as well as User ID's (however....it does NOT and
properly so do this for Passwords--I save No Passords)

Now although I am not sure, seems there are 2 features....AutoFill and
AutoComplete....I am not sure if these are the same or different. Please
advise.

I have gone into IE7, TOOLS\ INTERNET OPTIONS...Content Tab...AutoComplete
on my new PC and all Boxes are checked. I unchecked them, and rechecked
them. My New PC won't offer or display any text as does my older PC. For
instance, on my older PC when I go to a Site that requires ID/Password, when
I click into ID Box, a dropdown opens displaying my ID so I can click on it
saving me time to type it. Or, when I am completing a form at a Website that
requies my Name, address, etc, my older PC will open a list providing
selections to click on to fill the Form.

Again, my new Vista PC.....does not offer the above features even after I
checked in IE7 Tools and all boxes in AutoComplete are checked.

How do I get these time saving features working?

Hi,
AutoFill is a feature of the Google toolbar- AutoComplete is the Internet
Explorer feature. From IE> Tools> Manage add-ons, disable any Google add-ons
(there may be several.) Close/re-open IE. Any change in AutoComplete
behavior?

Does AutoComplete work if you start IE with all add-ons disabled?
Start IE without add-ons from:
Right-click the IE icon on the desktop. Choose Start without add-ons.
or
Programs> Accessories> System tools> Internet Explorer (no add-ons)


Next, in Internet Options> Content> AutoComplete, uncheck all AutoComplete
options. Click on "Delete AutoComplete history. Close/re-open IE and
re-enable all options.

Also, from Start> Run, type in gpedit.msc. Does Policy Editor open?

Try steps 1 & 2 at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=306895

Hope this helps,

I think part of the problem...is me! Perhaps I am confused as to what
feature does what? I looked at my Add-Ons...there was NO Google items
listed. I unchecked items in AutoComplete, deleted all uner the General Tab,
restarted IE...rechecked all in AutoComplete, restarted IE7, no difference.
My OS Visa Home Prem 32bit SP1....I went to SERVICES.....saw Protected
Storgae, it shows STARTED...Manual.
As an example of what is not taking place on my New PC, that takes place on
my Older PC, ....when I would go to Dell.com and start to enter my User ID to
logon to My Account.....my ID would appear in a drop down Window and I would
simply click on and it would populate the Block.....then I only needed to
type in my Password. This is not happening.

Hi,
1. Try the Reset IE Settings button in Internet Options> Advanced.
2. Internet Options> Privacy, try a cookie setting of Low.
3. Have you installed a third-party security/privacy program which manages
cookies or clears History, Temporary Internet Files or other data
automatically?
