| Re: How Can I turn off auto suggestion | lavantster | 6/1/10 11:48 PM | Yes, this NEEDS to be fixed. It seriously sucks. Why has this not been addressed as of yet? It seems like a relatively simple fix - just provide an option that STOPS suggestions from appearing at all. I know there is a check box for this. But it is w |
