I've turned off Autocomplete in IE 7 and it comes on almost daily asking me
to be turned back on. "Would you like to turn this feature on?" popup keeps
coming back randomly after i've repeatedly selected no.

If you know, can you tell me how do you do this in Vista?

Just wondering, Why haven't I seen more people asking about this? Doesn't it
bother people?

gpedit open?

Almost everyone I know uses some (if not all) of the AutoComplete features.
