Same. WTH?

Nothing under the options I can find will turn this off or the frequently viewed drop down from the address bar.

EDIT:
about:config
browser.urlbar.matchOnlyTyped
browser.urlbar.maxRichResults

Both to 0/false and restart FF. It will still record what you do, and if someone turns these values back they can see what you did. I just tested that.

The sheer amount of crap it pulled up that WAS SUPPOSE TO HAVE BEEN DELETED BACK WHILE USING FF2 is disturbing. I never did a hack job of cleaning up my history. I had CCleaner and my own manual inspections. Where is it getting this from???

Damn it all! I can't go to IE. Any Microsoft product is just as bad as authentic spyware.

EDIT:

Yay! FF2 again!

Im not sure what you guys are talking about I havent seen anything like that yet. ???

On the bright side, there is a massive improvement in the rendering. Just open that stupid pics go! thread and look at that ridiculous epilepsy post with FF2, then FF3.
