URL completion in address bar

The Firefox address completion and searching in the address bar is EVIL and MUST be turned off. My typos are PRIVATE. I don't want to go to some virus laden web site just because I mistyped a fragment of a URL.

Instructions

Turn off (or false) the following about:config parameters:

• keyword.enabled
• browser.fixup.alternate.enabled
