catesta Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 I don't know of I changed settings or if this is some new function, but I don't like it. When I begin to type something into the search box is starts bringing up all kinds of possibilities in a box below. It's not search history just close matches. Example, if I start to type in this site... It will bring up organ organ tissue organ grinder...and eventually organissimo forums. I just want to be able to type my shit in, right or wrong and click search with out the extra assistance from Google. Can this function be turned off?

7/4 Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 My first choice for organissimo is the band. Maybe you're searching for the other items more often? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neal Pomea Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Yeah, I believe this is new. Go to Google and click Preferences. Click Do not provide query suggestions in the search box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzmoose Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Yeah, that showed up on this computer yesterday. A mind reading trick that doesn't work....just what I needed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 The Google search bar on Firefox has done this for a while and I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewHill Posted September 3, 2008 Report Share Posted September 3, 2008 Noticed that Ebay has a similar search engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFrank Posted September 3, 2008 Report Share Posted September 3, 2008 That's a feature that has been showing up in a lot of sites these days, so you should probably get used to it. You can still type in whatever you want and ignore the suggestions. BTW, anybody download "Chrome" today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
