I don't understand what you mean. Stolen e-mails?

Please explain the problem in detail. What happens? What is/are the exact error message(s) ?

This could be two possibilities.

1) https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/address-bar-autocomplete-firefox Current Firefox: Menu → Options → Search → scroll down to Search Suggestions section and select or deselect the options you wish.

Older versions: Type about:preferences#privacy<enter> in the address bar. At the bottom of the page, find Location or Address Bar.


2) That could be the form filler built into Firefox. Click in the field, enter a character or two and STOP ! Using the arrow keys, highlight an unwanted entry. Then press Shift + Delete

Repeat as needed.
