Hello farnwyde,
Thank you for posting. Do you have any third party add-ons or toolbars running in your IE8?
If so it is possible that one of these is preventing the setting from holding.
Let’s try running IE without add-ons to see if this allows you to change the setting and have it hold.
Click on Start, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, and click Internet Explorer no Add-ons.
If IE functions normally and saves the Auto Complete settings then you will know that an add-on or toolbar is the problem.
Click on Tools, Internet Options, and Manage Add-ons then re-enable your add-ons and toolbars 1 at a time until you locate the add-on/toolbar causing your problem.
You may then simply leave the problem add-on/toolbar disabled.
Let us know if this solves the problem.
Thanks,
Jack
