Hi Michael,

For the name and password for web sites in either IE6 or IE5.5, select tools, Internet Options.
From the Content Tab, click on Auto-Complete.
You then have the option to clear forms and passwords.

For the system and other passwords, just delete the .pwl files for your profile on the client system.
I would also boot from a DOS boot disk, and delete the files webpoolfile from Windows\temp and all instances of index.dat

This site http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/
is a good resource for all IE questions.
