stopping automatic search history display

Jolaaled

Does anyone please know how to stop the automatic drop down menu of previous searches, that appears when i start to enter a new 'search' on, say Google.com?

It's annoying to say the least, and i don't want all other pc users in my home to see what my previous searches have been..
(not that they're dodgy or anything!) but my kids are in danger of finding out what i've got in mind for their birthdays!
thanks
