When typing into the search bar, suggestions (based on past site visits) are made as to what site I might want. Then a list of past visited pages drops down. I wish to purge this list — HOW?

What search bar are you talking about?

Location bar or search bar on Navigation Toolbar or a search in the browsing area (e.g. Firefox Home page)?
