Firefox Inline Autocomplete

Ken,

<< I hope there is a way to turn it off, I find it annoying. >>

Inline autocomplete was added in Firefox 0.9. It is enabled by default and so far as I can tell there is no native automated way to turn it off. Evidently it can be disabled with a code change, but I'm not gonna take a whack at it:

There is a piece of freeware available called "CleanMOCache." Take a look at the Screenshot|Preview from this link:

pcwdld.com

It appears you can configure it to clean the Mozilla (and possibly Firefox) autocomplete cache each time the browser closes. This might minimize what you find annoying. I haven't tried it and it evidently hasn't been updated since May 16, so it may not work on Firefox PR1.0.1 or even 0.9 which was introduced mid-June.
