Disable Officeworks.com.au Autocomplete Search officeworks

Their autocomplete search is abysmal.  Bit of quick sniffing yields this adblock rule.

Who the hell beta checks their site, idiot monkeys. Bye bye autocomplete.

AUTOC....  AUTOCLAM , FFFFUUUUU!!!!!!

How to disable FaceBook typeahead autocomplete using adblock

I find autocompletes sometimes useful, but it pissed me off when they modify the way I type or cause long pauses and unintuitive searches.

Facebook is no exception, their autocomplete search is crap and there is no way of disabling it in settings.


The autocomplete can be disabled using a simple adblock filter.

Done.

Disabling ebay auto-suggest easily and permanently using adblock

Ebay search auto suggest sucks, it is completely broken, often screwing up my typing searches, replacing words without my permission.  It is not all that useful and deserves a bullet in the brain.

There is a option to disable it "Hide eBay suggestions", but it is only cookie based and session dependent.  Not good enough.

Here is how to get rid of it for ever using adblock for good!
Add this line to your adblock plus block list: "autosug.ebaystatic.com"

If you don't have adblock you can certainly add the same domain to your hosts file, there is plenty of resourced on the inter-webs to show you how.
