How did TekTips find both my existing Email accounts

[Art2]

Small issue:
I logged onto Tek-Tips from IE.
When I started to enter the Membership section TekTips offered to fill in the two Email addresses I use.

I normally make a significant effort to use one (AOL) for free offers and other semi-trash issues and thought I had kept the second one (.us.army.mil) isolated from my AOL Email. I never seem to get the same SPAM on both accounts, so I figured it was working.

Anybody able to see why TekTips (working through IE) was able to identify both my accounts.

P.S. I signed on at work and AOL is blocked so I have never logged onto my AOL account from my work account.

This isn't Tek-Tips doing this. It is merely your "auto-complete" feature in Windows. Jim

Please come back and let us know if your
problem is fixed and what fixed it!!

...and you can find that "auto-complete" feature under Tools -> Internet Options -> Content. There will be an option to "Clear" forms and passwords.
