how do you turn off the feature on your computer that shows you everything you've typed in?

Question

Everytime I type one letter into a search engine, a list scrolls down to show me everything else i've searched for in the past. How do I turn this off?

Answer 1

If you're using Firefox:

Go to Tools--> Options.

In the dialog box that appears, click the "Privacy" icon.

Click the "Saved Forms" tab.

Uncheck the "Save information...." option. You're good to go after you "ok" your way out.

If you're using IE:

Go to Tools--> Internet Options

Click the "Content" tab.

Hit the "AutoComplete" button.

Uncheck the "Forms" checkbox in the dialog box that appears.
-------------------------------

If you're using any other browser, the following steps may help:

1. What you need is generally under "Options"

2. What you don't want is generally under "Forms".

Hope this helps.
