How do I add Auto Complete and how in the world do I get searches to open in a new page.
I just downloaded FireFox and need help with two things. One how do I get auto complete in FireFox. The download has removed this feature in my Google toolbar.??? and two how do I get the searches set to open in a new window. I do not like tab browsing. I went to tools and checked the box to open new windows in a new tab, but i don't see this happening. Maybe I am just assuming that this is the right setting to select. I just want my searches to open in a new window, not in the same window or tab. I have Firefox, Google, Bing and Norton search bars. I need all 4 in my business. Before the download I was at least able to get Google, Bing and Norton to open in new windows but now they are not. Nothing from any of the search bars will open in a new window

Did you install the Google Toolbar for Firefox? It has its' own autofill setup, separate from the rudimentary "form fill" that Firefox has. It also has its' own Searchbar, with its' own settings..
If you are talking about having searches from the Firefox Search Bar open in a new Tab. There is no setting for opening a search in a new window.
Type about:config in the URL bar and hit Enter.
If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.
Filter = browser.search.openintab = double-click that preference to toggle it to true, then restart Firefox
Download and save the Firefox.exe installer to your desktop and start the installation via a double click.
See http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
If that still gives problems then disable your anti-virus software during the download and installation.
