oh dott, oh dott!
I'm very avidly against bookmarking things, I somewhat blame this on Firefox 3's quick-bar being so fantastic in 3.0.

I've been using Opera for about a month now, and the quickbar is horrible. In Firefox I could type in something such as "gmai" and gmail.com would pop up - with Opera, it posts any sort of history/url that had "gmai" in it. So of course, I get all of these random google searches as I typically stay logged in to my gmail account with googling.

Is there a fix for this? I'm assuming its a pretty common request but I didn't see it mentioned in this thread.

Preferences -> Advanced -> History and then uncheck the box "Remember Content on Visited Pages".

That should decrease the amount of weird hits significantly.

Thanks, that helps quite a bit.

And to the OP - I deal with 15k+ servers, I apologize if I've grown accustomed to not having my bookmarks due to curl/wgetting/provisioning the hell out of URLs constantly. You opinion is noted and I will look into becoming a better web-browser.
