getting my www back

[Connemmara]

When I am looking for something and have looked for it before www always stored it for me. Now I have to type every www etc - what have I done wrong.

Add site to favorites or use google toolbar, maybe this might help.

thanks vignon - I know what you are talking about favourites but this is different.

e.g. if I type in www.dailymail.co.uk then after looking at the site type www.dailymirror.co.uk then if I want to go back to dailymail all I USED to have to do was type dail and dailymail and dailymirror would show up together - this would be the same for any sites with the same initial letter - I hope I have not confused you.

But thats what happens in the Google toolbar.

maybe your auto-complete has been switched off? It will depend what browser you're using

Thanks JNO, for pointing that out, thats what I like about this site the knowledge you pick up.

Thanks for all your answers - yes indeed I had switched off browser in

Tools, Internet Options - "delete browsing history on exit" - that is where the problem was - hopefully this helps somebody else. anyway thanks to the rest of you for the answers - it is great to get help on these sites for practically everything. XXX
