Whatever I have searched for shows up in my search window. That should be cleared as well (or at least have a checkbox to select whether or not the search history should be cleared). I would expect my search box to be clear after clearing private data. I don't want others to know what I last searched for. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enter "Clear private data" menu 2. Check all boxes 3. Click "Clear private data" now Actual Results: Clears everything but my search box Expected Results: Clears my search box too

Where does your search information still appear? In form autocomplete? In autocomplete for the Firefox search bar? In autocomplete for the Google Toolbar search bar?

Here is some more info to clarify: The information shows up in the search window itself (top right corner). I do not have Google toolbar installed. I have "Save information I enter in forms and the search bar" UNchecked. I will attached 3 JPGs - one before, one clearing, and one after. I also have this information in my userChrome.css. I tried removing it all and the results are still the same: ---BEGIN--- #search-container, #searchbar { -moz-box-flex: 400 !important; } /* Hide auto-complete in address bar */ #PopupAutoComplete, .autocomplete-tree { visibility: hidden !important; display: none !important; } /* Remove arrow from Address bar */ .autocomplete-history-dropmarker { display: none !important; } ---END---
Note the window is not changed after clearing everything. I'd expect this to be completely blank.
