Hi I Want to turn off suggestions from firefox off because it's annoying to see firefox suggesting the site that you searched and cleared before.

Hi, there are a lot of different kinds of suggestions, so if you could clarify this a little bit. Are the unwanted suggestions the ones that --

(1) Appear automatically when you click in the address bar, before you type any text for Firefox to match off of (these are the "Shortcuts" from the built-in Firefox Home / new tab page)?

(2) Appear in the address bar itself where you are typing (autofill)?

(3) Appear in the drop-down as you type? These include dynamic search suggestions (magnifying glass), search history (clock icon), browsing history (site icon), boookmarks (site icon + star), and others.
