What version of IE are you using?

In IE 6, click on Tools, then choose Internet Options. I believe the option you want is under the Advanced tab, listed as "Enable inline autocomplete". Uncheck that, and then click OK.

I'm on a FreeBSD system right now, so excuse me if those directions are slightly off...

Tools -> Internet Options -> Content

Click on the 'AutoComplete' button, and turn off the settings there!
