Hi all Still struggling to turn off google instant and in the process of checking a few things I find in Ccleaner that although I have cookies ticked to clear under the windows section, they do not clear (ie cookies still show in the Cookies section in the left pane) So looking further there is a cookie option which is unticked under the Applications section What happens if I tick that and run Ccleaner ? I wondered what others have that set at Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) > Hi all > > A peculiar one that I can't seem to resolve > > For the last few days I have been lumbered with googles predictive text type searches > > Where you start to type and it "predicts" what the site is you are looking for, it really drives > me > round the bend > > I have looked at settings and have google instant turned off, yet it does it anyway > > I have turned it on , saved settings, then turned it off and saved again yet no effect > > Anyone have a clue what it might be ? > > I use Firefox and XP > > Any help appreciated before I bin google and use Bing instead > > On googling this appears to be a long term problem for some, this has only just become an issue > for me in the last week > > I suspect it coincided with upgrading to the latest Firefox as Ancestry have now added a usable > enhanced viewer > > I have checked googles forums but all they seem to do is vent their anger on google but google > does not respond or fix the problem > > Any thoughts ? > > Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) >

Hi Nivard, Not sure what you mean by this statement... (ie cookies still show in the Cookies section in the left pane) The "cookies" box will always remain ticked on until you choose to tick it off (i.e. not delete any cookies) When you click on the "Analyze" button, before actually doing a Cleaning, do you get results that show you will be deleting cookies? As well, in CCleaner if you click on the Options selection (Left Side), then click on the Advanced button, you will have an option that should be ticked ON... "Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 24 hours" This will leave any Windows Temporary files that are less than 24 hours old, as is. Not sure if this affects cookies, as well ?!?!?
