Default Clearing previous searches/passwords from IE

When typing in a search in Google there is always a drop down list
showing all previous searches. I want to delete that for good and I
don't want future searches to come up either. Likewise with user namess
and passwords for sites where I am a member. As soon as I type the
first letter I am suggested the rest of the user name/password. How do
I stop this function in IE?

Tools | Internet Options | Content | AutoComplete
Uncheck the box for Forms and then click Clear Forms.
NOTE: This will do it for all forms, not just Search.
