A username was automatically saved on my computer that I don't recognize. So every time I try to go on facebook and hit the letter b this username comes up. Is there a way to see when this username was added?

You can't see the date and time when an autocomplete entry was added.

Is that a name/password entry saved in the Password Manager or a regular form data entry saved via "Remember search and form history"?
