I'm currently using Firefox v26.0 and can't turn off the autocomplete in the Google query box. I found the process once before but I've been looking for 3 days and can't seem to now, anyone..... Please!

Thanks for the reply however that may change the url autocomplete but doesn't stop it from autocompleting Search Quiries. I did just find the home page workaround that will do what I need.

If you use Google as your home page enter " https://www.google.com/webhp?complete=0 " sans quotes
