Use Mozilla based browsers,they capture all the data you enter in a form and save it on your hard disk.You can save every form you ever will fill in.and when ever you are on that form again,you can just refill/prefill it.Other then that,since you know c/c++ you can probably write a plugin for your browser that will let you save the data onto your disk..(hopefully):D
