On a WinXP SP2 reinstall, on the Google homepage I am getting a drop down
window with suggested search words using the word or words I have already
entered. Very handy, but is there a way to turn this feature on/off?
Thx
Dave.

Open the Google Homepage:


1. On the right - select Preferences
2. Scroll down to Query Suggestions (last one)
3. Select Do not provide query suggestions in the search box
4. Save Preferences
