The AutoComplete Feature of your browser is turned on as a default. Go open your Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options > Content tab > you will see "Auto Complete" click on "settings" then uncheck everything. then click OK.

If you're using Internet Explorer there is something called Auto Complete. Check in the Internet Options under the content tab.

try a system restore

Your "auto complete" function is turned on in your browser. It tries to guess what you are looking for based on your past search history. As soon as you put the first letter in it comes up with all the search terms you typed in before that start with that letter. You can easily turn it off but I would need to know what browser you are using to tell you how to turn it off.

don't use autocomplete - can get you in trouble if you view teh pr0n.

I actually got a bloke fired once for his autocomplete entries. Mind you, he was searching for dog rape pictures.

And trying to work in a primary school.

Not good...

Yes because it searches the database for all Items containing 'M'
