To keep them out isn't possible that I know of. You delete stuff from history using Shift+Del.

You can keep anything from showing up at all while you are entering a new address by typing about:config in the address bar, scroll down to the browser.urlbar.maxRichResults and change the value from 12 to 0. Restart Firefox to show the changes.

Hi Baehemoth,

I found a solution here too! 9 tweaks for Firefox 3’s location bar - Mozilla Links

Thanks
