How come some sites won't let you save the information, but others will? Like Yahoo won't save my user info but my school mail's website does. Anyone?

Yahoo's website has been setup to save your login information in a cookie and you school's website has not, this has nothing to do with Windows or IE.

I'm talking about how you can double click on the username box and it will come up with a list of possible usernames and such for that box. Like if I clicked on anandtech to log in it would show me my screename and it would let me click it and autofill my password.

ahhh, it's called "auto-complete" and I'm not sure why it would work differantly (as far as it's concerned a form is a form is a form) you could PM me the URL for the login page for your school's e-mail and I'll take a look at it if you want.
