    Take those 9 names of those silly stupid people that you think I WANT TO SEARCH in my browser history. Put back MY BROWSING HISTORY WHICH NO LONGER SHOWS. Its bad enough so silly teenager wants to read about them I DON'T. The only thing I want to see in my browser history is MY SEARCHES.
    Next stop adding places you think I want in MY FAVORITES to the top of my personal list if I want to go to those sites I know how to find them, give me the option to remove them they take up too much space.
    I pay AOL GOLD and I am saying STOP ADDING FEATURES WITHOUT MY CONSENT OR CHOICE OR STOP CHARGING ME LIKE OTHER BROWSERS SITES AND BE FREE.

    The address bar on my aol browser has an autofill problem that does not allow me to easily access websites. When typing in a specific url, it will often direct me to a previously viewed site and will not permit me to finish typing in the url for the site I wish to visit. This issue is extremely annoying and time consuming because of the difficulty reaching the URL I intend to visit. It also creates a privacy issue for anyone else who might wish to use this computer.

    wont clear all my history. And I want to clear my browsing history when I clear the caches and cookies to avoid error on my AOL desktop gold.

    Please bring back the Browser History. All I had to do before was click on the website I wanted to revisit. Now I have to type it all over again. You replaced it with a list of things, most of which I have no interest in or knowledge about. Browser History was one of the best things about AOL. I have no idea why you removed it, but plead with you to return it!!!!!

    I wish you would stop trying to improve AOL by making it worse. Now you don't keep brower history, one of the best things. I once could look back at something i had looked at before. Now all you have is a list of things to search for. PLEASE KEEP BROWER HISTORY LISTED AS IT WAS!!!! (AND WHY DO WE STILL HAVE TO TERRIBE YELLOW-ORANGE ON EMAIL?

    Please remove those stupid names and the word SEARCH from the Browser!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is that too much to ask of a computer company that is as old and reliable as AOL?

    I do not want your pre selected browser items!!!!!!.....I need them gone!!! my computer is slower than before........I am fed up.......Don Cartledge

    I HATE what you have done with the suggestions and auto fill in the Internet search bar. WHY did you do this? If I try to type anything at normal speed, it misspells words by leaving two to five letters out because auto fill is attempting to keep up. If you simply type in google.com very slowly, it will take you to a google search from the past. I have NO interest in your "suggestions" and they are a pain in the butt. How about leaving an old version available before my wife and I cancel this ridiculous so called "upgrade?" Since 1996, this is the STUPIDEST thing AOL has done. It is NOT user friendly. I beta test programs myself and this should have been axed long ago.

    I do not want to see the search suggestions that AOL is adding to the address bar.
    Pleas discontinue . i see that several others do not like it also.
    We have been useing AOL for a long time, but if this is not taken care of will be changeing.

  • Donald Graber commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    A default AOL Search bar with suggestions not wanted has been added without my knowledge or approval. Eliminate it as a default.

  • MICHAEL GUSTIN commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    I need to have the automatic search suggestions turned off. I do not need to have my typing interrupted while I am typing an address.
