  1. A strange text appeared during search box loading on the taskbar


    I don't know if it's something serious, so I thought I'd try to ask

    It started when I clicked on the search box and it was loading for a while due to some error, but for a few seconds some strange text popped up that looked like some kind of file name (I think the title started with "2022" and then there were also some strange words), after the search box loaded, the text disappeared after a while

    Anyone know what it could have been? I searched for it on the Internet but didn't find anything either

    Hi John,

    This issue with search box may happen if it's hidden from the taskbar.

    To resolve the issue, follow the steps below:

    • Right-click on the taskbar and select Search.
    • Select Show search box.

    Feel free to post back if you have other concerns.

    Firefox Search Box Text

    In previous versions of Firefox, I was able to find the option to disable the browser from showing previously entered text into a search or text box. For example, the User Name box on this forum, I type "O" and OrbitzXT pops up. Other text in other search boxes has been popping up as well. I am using Firefox 3.6, I've tried clearing histories and such and it still remembers text in the boxes. Any ideas how to disable this? I don't see any such option in Tools -> Options.
