Firefox 3 is out

[DesertPirate]

The guyus at Mozilla screwed up!
Under tools/options/privacy there is a check box that says:
Remember what I enter in forms "and" the search bar

Should be separate functions damnit!

Not the only thing they've screwed up. Why the hell they thought it would be a good idea to list some of your bookmarks in the addy drop down menu and not allow you to disable it, I have no idea. (If there is a way, I haven't found it yet.)

Yep. I'm back with my other browser until I can figure out how to clear the location/address bar.

Try this:

To make the autocomplete menu show only typed addresses and not visited or bookmarked:

* Enter about:config in the location bar to access the advanced preferences. Accept the “This may void your warranty message”.
* Look for browser.urlbar.matchOnlyTyped and double click it to set it to TRUE.

Well, it winnowed the list down from about 8 to 2 but didn't get rid of it completely.

Thanks for the tip.


Edited to add: Deleting those two bookmarks (which I didn't need anyway) cleared it out completely.
