In IE, when I type in yahoo or any space for text and hit a letter i
brings up everythign I've searched for ever like if I got o yahoo an
type "a" in the search box, a list of everything starting with A wil
appear. How can I disable this? It's a real nuisence
 
Hi,
From IE> Tools> Internet Options> Advanced> Browsing> uncheck "Reuse windows
for launching shortcuts."

And... you may have a toolbar or program running which is blocking
pop-up windows- something like Yahoo toolbar, Google toolbar, MSN toolbar,
etc.
The Yahoo toolbar is a very common cause. Uninstalling the Yahoo toolbar
should allow a second window to open.

If you're sure that another program isn't causing this, these links should
help.
