Just installed Firefox

I've just switched from Internet Explorer (for the 1st time) to Firefox (thanks to Gryphonklaw's amazing advertising).

 

Just wondering how to get rid of the "auto-complete" in the address bar and anywhere else. I hate this feature in any browser. So is there an option to do this or not?

 

Thanks.

Hmm...good question. I don't know. You should ask this question over here: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=38

 

That's the Community Help forum for Firefox.

Wow, I never noticed Mozilla Firefox had autocomplete.

Ummm, Just Ignore It?

for some reason the autoupdate thingie doesn't work for me

Firefox has autocomplete? Not for me, even the slightest mistake in a url and it gets bunked (like blahblah.co instead of.com and nada)

 

Maybe it's an option that I disabled? Did you look around in the settings?

Fire Fox seems not bad for me, but it's just a little too slower than my IE.

FireFox kicks major a$$ whats this auto complete? where is this displayed at?

Firefox also has some nice themes to. so go scoop some up

If you can't do it, just clear your history once in a while and no one will know you're browsing for porn.

It's not actually Auto-Complete but the tab that you can click next to the address bar that lists all previously visited sites. I already figured it out by taking Gryphs advice about using a Firefox forum. And Ryuken's method is the one that worked for me (although I got that info from elsewhere, but thanks anyway Ryuken).
