How could I remove the words I have already written in text boxes (zip code, words I searched for in Google, ...) from my computer memory ?
Does not seem to be in the internet temp files or cookies ....
Tks in advance

There is a very easy way to do this. Turn off 'Auto Complete" in your Internet Options and also there is an article that tells you step by step at http://www.techtv.com/screensavers/shownotes/story/0,24330,3328682,00.html

For the google ones I simply put the cursor in the text box and that results in the list of searched items appearing, then I highlight the top one of the list and hold the delete key.
Deletes them for me.

lol, you can do it.
A magical little program called regedit will help. :)

If you're running IE 6.0, you can go to "Tools" on your menu bar, then select Internet Options. After that click on the "content" tab and then click the button labeled "Autocomplete". There will be another button on the window which pops up that will give you the option of clearing either forms or passwords. This is where you can also turn off auto complete as suggested by CitznFish
