Ah!

"old data" as in "This is what you typed into the form last time you
were here, so this is what you must want in the form this time, no
matter what is in the HTML for the default value, because we are
Microsoft, and our users are stupid and this is what they want"?

You're pretty much dealing with a browser behaviour, I think, and
people dumb enough to use IE actually expect it to work that way, and
trying to fix it is probably a mistake.
