Hi,
I have been using my mates computer and some how I seem to have turned of the screen that ask you if you want to store login information when you first login to a site.

Can anyone tell me how to switch this back on ?

    Not sure if this is what you are asking:

    Stops it happening again

    Tools - internet options - content- autocomplete- settings - uncheck web addresses, click ok

    Deletes what it is now but lets new links return

    In IE, on the menu bar at the top TOOLS / INTERNET OPTIONS / CLEAR HISTORY BUTTON.

    To let IE store your passwords (IE7)

    Tools -> Options
    Select the Content tab
    Under AutoComplete, click "Settings"
    Ensure "Usern ames and passwords" is checked
    You may want to check "Prompt me to Save Passwords" as well
    Click OK
    Click OK
