for reasons unknown to me, when I enter anything into a search, each time I
hit the space bar the address list drops down, and I have to click to get rid
of it, then click again after each word for it to take more than one word at
a time. I have been using windows XP for about a year now ( without actually
knowing how), and this has never happened before. Pls help, I'm quite
perplexed- thanks!

Is this the Internet Explorer? In IE, tools, Internet Options, content tab,
AutoComplete button, clear forms.

No, Verizon/msn. I thought it was the same as internet explorer, no?

Why do you have to click away from it?

To be able to type more than one word I have to do all that in between each
word. I don't know if I'm explaining too well, but here's hoping! thx
