Chrome - How to remove wrong auto-complete text entries in Chrome

I had a couple of sites where Chrome would suggest usernames as part of auto-complete feature. This did not bother me when username was correct but the problem was I had a couple of wrong username suggestions and I could not find out how to remove those. Looked at cookies, and other usual suspects without luck. I finally find an answer here: http://superuser.com/questions/171198/remove-auto-complete-field-entries-in-google-chrome
I have clipped the answer below:
You can remove entries from the list using the following steps:
  1. Select the "Username" field and make sure it is blank
  2. Press  on your keyboard, a list of all of the "remembered" entries should appear.
  3. Using  &  highlight an entry you would like to delete.
  4. Press delete. (Note that you may need to use shift+deletefn+deletectrl+delete(Ubuntu) in some instances, like if the remembered entry is in the address / URL bar). (I HAD TO USE SHIFT DELETE ON Windows7!)
  5. Repeat steps 2-4 until satisfied.

How to Open Excel files on separate windows (Windows 7 and Excell 2007)



For over a year I have struggled with Excel opening all my spreadsheets on the same window. I know you can use View to split/arrange/move the open spreadsheets around but sometimes I just prefer to have 2 separated independent windows like what happens with Word files...I looked into multiple  solutions, some even suggesting register changes but I found the answer in a MS forum here and it is so simple I have clipped the answer that solved my problem below (Thanks Bananarama_1 whoever you are!) so you don't need to look for the right answer in the forum.

Just open another Excel instance by simply clickink the Excel icon on the task bar with the mouse wheel and voila, you have an independent Excel instance you can use to open another file!
