Amazon.com keeps autofilling their search box with previous searches in firefox, doesn't in other browsers. I have deleted cookies. How do I stop that behavior?

Every time I go to amazon.com the amazon search box autofills with an old search and if I click off it auto fills the search window in amazon again with the old search criteria. Super annoying. Does not have this behavior in edge.

Worked as described, thanks. Interestingly enough when I "undid" the changes, amazon's search box went right back to the original suggestion, which makes me think the old data is floating around somewhere. In any case, the changes are permanent now and Amazon.com's search box is behaving (for now).

Glad to help. Safe Surfing.
