This should be an easy one for you....

I just DL'd Firefox, and I can't figure out how to disable the find as you type in the address bar.  

Can someone please help me out?  I found some info at the Mozilla site, but it's way over my head.

Thanks,

Erik Johnson

I think you're talking about auto complete? where as you type a url it tries to auto complete it with sites you've already been to?

if so

1.   Open the Firefox browser.

2.   From the Firefox menu, select 'Tools'

3.   Select 'Options'

4.   Click 'Privacy'

5.   Click 'Saved Forms'

6.   Click 'Settings'

7.   Select all options in the 'Clear Private Data' window

8.   Click OK

9.   Click 'Clear Saved Form Data Now'

10.   Uncheck 'Save information I enter in forms and the Search Bar'

11.   Click OK
