My digging so far on this subject suggests that there are a couple ways to
save this info.  One is HTML Autcomplete, the other is a cookie.

If neither is used, your browser will not save the data.  So it's not a
matter of blocking, but rather not saving.

The webpage I was interested in, apparently uses cookies.  I can view the
code for that page using Firefox (not IE) and do not find Autocomplete
anywhere, only cookie settings.  However having cookies enabled and having
cleared the cookie files, it still does not work.  

I also find (FWIW) that clearing Forms and Passwords in IE
Content/Autocomplete, also clears data saved in cookies.  At least that is
what I saw in this case.  After I did this, IE would not save user/pass in
cookies for this page.

It just proves that the design of browsers is not consistent and takes
liberty with logic :-)

Regards,

Rich
