Textboxes show colored backgrounds

When my web pages display in my I.E. 7 Browser there are apparent random
background colors in the textboxes - mostly yellow, sometimes green, some
are white. This does not happen using firefox. My skin file calls for a
white background in the text boxes. The same occurs if I remove the textbox
skin.

Anyone know why?
Thanks,
T

Google bar is the cultprit. You can't control it from the application, only
with settings on client machine.

I wouldn't do it in my code. You never know, one day google or someone else
will change the way of doing things and it won't work anymore. And most of
users already know of yellow background. Also, they may want to actually use
the feature.

I think it should be left for client to decide.
