drop down history

[bob]

How do I stop the drop down history list appearing when typing keystrokes in
search engines such as altavista & google. The list appears whether family
filter is on or off and can be quite embarassing when the kids are
researching for homework. I know this is probably the wrong newsgroup but
do appreciate advice on this.
