    AOL has added this without users knowledge or approval and it is annoying.

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

    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.

    PLEASE get our browser corrected...take those dumb names off the list!!! No benefit whatsoever!!!!

  • JOHN BETRO JR commented  ·   ·  Report

    my address bar types information incorrectly. Did some troubleshooting with different AOL technical representatives, uninstalled ADG and installed it backedup the file on my desktop and renamed the AolDesktopData but it's still the same. It won't type whatever websites I want to type.

    Get rid of the stupid names in the browser when you try to clear it!!!! Absolutely asinine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    please get rid of the stupid names in the browser when you try to clear it. It is one of the most stupid ideas that I can imagine! NOW!!!

    I can't even get to Google.com in the Internet search bar without this new version sending me to baseball scores that I looked at earlier today and then leaving Google all together to some other website. My wife is having the same problem. Get rid of this latest update AOL! It's totally useless and stupid. I Beta tested computer programs for the state and even the state wouldn't allow anything this disruptive to be implemented.

    The above pertains to the internet address search bar. It's to the point that I may cancel my subscription...which I've had since 1996.

  • David Grix commented  ·   ·  Report

    Get rid of the new auto-fill search feature. It makes attempting to navigate nearly impossible. It even causes the computer to miss letters typed in or even completely leave out search words.

  • IMOGENE G. BOSEMAN commented  ·   ·  Report

    I have had DELL computer company work on this and they advise me to contact AOL. I have called AOL several times in the last few days...but no one seems to listen to the problem! The technicians tell me to submit information to AOL. This is the most stupid thing that AOL has ever done in the over 20 years that I have used it. I can't believe that I have to pay for a service that is so weak and inefficient!!! Please make it where we can clear the browser again, PLEASE!!!!

    Please remove the address bar celebrity search suggestions.

    Just hit the control button and the letter H at the same time much less steps to clear browser history. It just will not clear the AOL search suggestions which we all do NOT WANT!

    New search bar recommendations in drop down box is annoying. While I am typing, it misses characters and screws up my intended search item.

  • James Matsuura commented  ·   ·  Report

    I would like the preset search suggestion to be deleted. I do not have any use for this. This list is not my interests.

  • ROBERT BETTIS commented  ·   ·  Report

    I dislike the 10 suggestions; names, that always come up on my address bar. Please get rid of that . I don't recognize the names and I don't want that on my screen when I delete and clear my address bar.
    I have been an AOL member for a long, long time....... I would guess 35 to 40 Years.
    I'm not the only one that doesn't like them according to your website. Please do us a a and get rid of this stupid idea.
