Hi,

Thanks for posting here.

You may refer to our MVP Don's suggestions if you would like to deploy the
restriction to many clients.

If there are only few computers, you also may use the following steps to
manually set this:

1. Navigate to Internet Explorer -> Tools menu -> Internet Options ->
Content tab | Personal Information section | AutoComplete button.
2. Under "Use AutoComplete for", de-select the 'User names and passwords on
forms' checkbox.
3. Click Ok to apply the setting.

The following method will clear the credentials already cached in Windows
XP joins a workgroup:
1. Open Control Panel and go into User Accounts.
2. Select the account and then choose "Manage my network passwords".
3. A "Store User Names and Passwords" dialog will appear.
4. Click Remove button to clear any passwords (for the affected sites.)

For more information about AutoComplete feature, please refer to the
following Microsoft Web site:
