How can I make Google forget an incorrect password?

When I opened a blog account I inadvertently typed the incorrect e-mail address when I first attempted to access the site. Now when I go into the account, I need to type in the full e-mail address everytime because the Google drop-down suggestions menu repeats the original incorrect wording (goggle instead of google).

It's a minor irritation but I'd like to correct it if possible. Can anyone tell me how to?

Thanks

double click in the box where you type the email address should bring up the incorrect entry, move the mouse pointer over the one you want to get rid of and press delete on the keyboard.

Hi - thanks - that allos me to amend the entry easier but next time I go in Google still presents the original incorrect address as the option. I can't seem to persuade it to allow me to change the entry permanently
If you use Internet Explorer select Tools, internet Option, Delete, tick all the options including Form Data, press Delete , then log out of IE. When you log back in it should be okay. Does it work?
