I have auto-fill disabled for everything except bookmarked websites, but the address bar still auto-fills for certain websites that have nothing to do with my browsing history or bookmarks.

when i type s, it auto-fills to sportchek.ca a = amazon.ca etc

many of these websites are sites i do not have bookmarked or in my history.

does Mozilla get money for this?

You need to clear the cache/history in order for it to forget sites you visted. But that clears everything including login that you need to retype in as well.
