Firefox - drop down address bar question

Hi guys.

I dumped internet explorer & installed firefox which I am very happy with.

But one thing is bugging me.

Every week or 2 I delete all the history but the drop down address bar still keeps some websites on it..

How do I get rid of it?

I also use CCleaner & that doesn't get rid of it either..

  • I believe these refer to what's in your favourites folder. Check on google, they'll probably be a hack to change this back.

    Go to Tools>Options and select the Privacy panel.

    In the part which says Location Bar: "When using the location bar suggest History and Bookmarks", change it to just History (or if you don't want any suggestions at all, change it to None)
