It varies. It depends on the version of windows and the version of IE For example: Windows 2000 with IE6 stores them in: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\IntelliForms\SPW Other versions store in different keys, like HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Protected Storage System Provider\<user name> for Win9x systems with IE5(?) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Protected Storage System Provider\<user SID> for WinNT* systems with IE5(?) So you need to know what version of the OS and what version of IE then hunt accordingly Oh, and the keys are encrypted -- Don't even go there
