IE Auto Complete won't clear

When I try to clear the passwords and forms saved in "Auto Complete" it
hangs and I get the (Not Responding). I have tried it several times,
restarted, tried it in safe mode, it didn't hang but it didn't clear
anything either...

Thanks but this is what helped...
Hi,
You probably have a damaged registry key.

Try this:
With no programs open,
Run REGEDIT and make your way to this key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Software
Microsoft Internet Explorer
IntelliForms
SPW
Export that key (Registry> Export- just in case you wish to undo the
change) then delete it- just the SPW key.
Restart the computer.

Hope this helps,
