    Make FF3.0 stop! [Serious]

    How do I get Firefox to stop displaying the dropdown of suggested websites when I type in an address?

    It's completely annoying.
    Merry Christmas

    Do you want it to go back to the way it was in Firefox 2?

    I want it to not display all the previously visited websites in an annoying dropdown.

    I mean, if it's available if I arrow down or somthing that'd be swell.

    Si's link should help you then. Some people (me) found the rich results annoying, so OldBar was made for them. But if you're not happy with the algorithm they use, then you're limited to the options you can disable or enable.

    There is a setting to disable what FF3 call the awesome bar.
