IE 5.0 hack: Disable Password Caching
"Internet Explorer has the ability to remember the passwords you
use to log on to certain Web sites. To disable this feature --
called Password Caching -- open the Registry editor and drill down
to the following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionInternet Settings
Right-click the white space in the left pane and select New/DWORD Value.
Give the new value the name DisablePasswordCaching and set the value to 0x00000001."
Again, if your users have the permissions to change registry settings, or
to reinstall IE, then there is no guarantee that Password Caching will remain
disabled.
