User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9b3) Gecko/2008020514 Firefox/3.0b3 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9b3) Gecko/2008020514 Firefox/3.0b3 After the upgrade to Firefox 3.03 beta (week of 2/11/2008), upon initial launch of application, the autofill feature for the URL address is now finding four (4) matches (as soon as I begin to type "www.". My preferences are set for "Clear Private Data (upon exit)", with all fields checked except for "Saved Passwords". The 4 website matches are obscure websites (including a Google search and a Microsoft Technet search), which I have not used in months. In previous 3.x beta versions, the autofill feature did not match until I had been to websites. Also unusual is that the websites are rated (each 1 star), which I know I never did. I attempted to search for "old" cache files which might have remained from previous versions, but I was unsuccessful. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Execute / launch Firefox 3.03 beta application. 2. Enter "www." into Location Bar and autofill matches are presented. 3. Actual Results: Autofill presents a drop down selection of 4 websites, even after "Clear Private Data" is executed (both manually and automatically, upon exiting application). Expected Results: No autofill drop down should be present, until after entering URL / URLs into Location bar.

Also bookmarks are displayed in the URL bar autocomplete dropdown, not only history. They won't be deleted after clearing private data.

I wanted to confirm the same problem in 3.0 beta5. My address bar items are still cached after closing or even manually invoking "clear private data". Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.9b5) Gecko/2008032620 Firefox/3.0b5

same problem on my: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.0) Gecko/2008051400 SUSE/3.0-1.1 Firefox/3.0
I am experiencing the same problem and want to know if there is currently any way to remove address that auto-fill after a clear data action.
