To disable password caching, start the registry editor (Regedt32.exe), and locate and click the following key in the registry:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings

On the Edit menu, click Add Value , and then add the following registry value:

Value name: DisablePasswordCaching
Data type: REG_DWORD
Radix: Hexadecimal
Value data: 0x00000001
Quit Registry Editor.

You can also disable password caching by using the Microsoft Internet Explorer Administration Kit (IEAK) to create an executable file, and then attach it as an add-on component. When you use this method, Setup adds the DisablePasswordCaching value to the registry during the installation process.
