When I type in the address bar the first option on the menu drop-down is always of the form 'visit' or 'search' How do I prevent these from appearing?

Until typing today on behalf of the part of a site or a page that is shown a list of suggestions from my previous navigation. However, since installed 43, the first option is now either visit: xxxx, which is always a site, never a page, or when the string does not have a page it goes to the research: what I just typed.

I would like to disable this, but I am struggling to find the solution for it.

Can someone point me in the right direction please?

You can set browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete to false to remove the suggestion of visit page from the drop-down list.

You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

    I use to manage my DSL modem via an ip address. When I enter FF8 I wonder where to save the file. Why and how can I prevent the FF8 to do this?

    And now, whenever I'm in an ip address that I wonder if I want to download the file.

    This happens when the modem server does not send the file in text/html, but with a different MIME type.

    I tried adding index.html in the event that the server can send this file as text/html.

    If your DSL modem has a support Web site, then you can try asking it there advice on how to configure the server modem.
