If you're using Internet Explorer, click Tools, Internet Options.\n\nChoose the Content Tab.\n\nClick AutoComplete.\n\nPush the Clear Forms button, and if you don't want it to do that anymore, uncheck the Forms checkbox.\n\nClick OK until you have returned to your browser.  I recommend closing Internet Explorer and then restarting it just to ensure it stops remembering what you've typed.

You have to go into the control panel, Internet Settings, and clear history, and clear auto complete settings. That should clear out everything that would populate the search edit box when you start typing.\n\nYou could also set him up on his own account in Windows and then you don't have to worry about it.

This is a feature where if you enter the first one or more characters in a field, a box will pop-up with choices among previous entries that match.  If you ever leave your computer unattended, it is a good idea to turn this feature off, otherwise things like account numbers and usernames can be discovered easily by someone else using your computer.
