Thanks George.  I just can't find anywhere that stores it, but there must be a 
place somewhere because it's remembering everything and everyone, even when 
recipients aren't in my contacts book.  Bizarre.

  Hi Jackie,

   

  This is one of Microsoft’s annoyances, though  I must confess I’ve not done a 
serious search as to where it stores these things.  You’ll find it remembers 
things like this is Explorer too, and various other places.

   

  George.

  Hi Guys

   

  I'm resending this as I didn't see it pass on Friday, and would appreciate 
your wisdom please.

   

  My desktop PC uses XP Home Edition, and my new laptop Windows Vista Home 
Premium.  I make regular backups of my Windows address book on XP and delete 
everything out of Vista and import a fresh backup every so often.

   

  But when I deleted all my contacts from Vista ready for a fresh backup 
recently, I realised that it was still picking up Emails I composed, putting 
the recipient into the address field as if the contacts were still there.  I 
also noticed that it remembers any contact I haven't got backed up in my 
address book either, as I don't have the box checked to automatically add 
contacts I reply to, to my address book.

   

  Where then is Vista storing this information, and how can I stop it from 
remembering everything?

   

  I use Outlook Express on XP, and the equivalent Windows Mail on Vista.  I 
also have Office 2003 Professional installed on both machines, and have no 
contacts or other info in Outlook that could be causing this to happen.

   

  Please anyone, any ideas?  This is rather strange, and I'd like to at least 
know how to access any hidden files Vista is apparently generating.

   

  Many thanks.

   

  Jackie
