On IE, click on Tools (Gear icon) > Internet Options > Content > AutoComplete Settings. Disable AutoComplete.
Still under the Internet Properties, click on Advanced. Remove the check on "Use Inline AutoComplete in the IE Address Bar and Open Dialog".
On Firefox, click on Tools or the orange Firefox tab. Select Options > Security. Under Passwords, remove the check on "Remember Passwords for Sites". Clear the list of saved passwords also.
On Google Chrome, click on the Wrench icon > Settings > Show advanced settings > Passwords and forms. Remove the check on "Enable Autofill" and on "Offer to save passwords".
Here's another tip you can try. When you get to the box where the username is filled, press the down arrow key to list the entries used before and then press the Delete key to remove it from the saved list. This goes the same with the search box. You can selectively remove the previous search words.

User Names and passwords are auto-filled.....to errase and delete them use CC Cleaner free version and place a check mark in Auto-fil and passwords....they will all be deleted....then the next time you try to sign in to mail do not click the IE pop up and save the auto-fill option...
