On the Content tab of Internet Properties, under the heading "AutoComplete",
click Settings, and uncheck "Forms".

Re: settings

For addition privacy you might want to set your History to 0 days( which is
really 1 day in Microsoft's reasoning). Go to Tools>Internet
Options>General>Browsing History Settings>History.
Also Start button>right click blank area>Properties>uncheck "Store and
display recently opened files" Wayne
