There is a browser setting for "autofill" passwords and forms...

In chrome:

At the top right, click More Settings.
At the bottom, click Advanced.
Under "Passwords and forms," turn off Autofill settings.

If you want to just delete specific autofill entries:
Click the Chrome menu on the browser toolbar and select Settings.
Click “Show advanced settings” and find the “Passwords and forms” section.
Select Manage Autofill settings.
In the dialog that appears, select the entry you'd like to delete from the list.

in Firefox:
