Actually you are right I did see daysleeper. I forgot about that one. I remember that name, but it has been awhile. Isn't that strange? I did a search on several user names just to see if they would show up after that and they don't. I think it is just names that have been searched repeatedly.

It's not the same as autofill. Autofill is when someone on your computer is looking up stuff and it fills in for you. This is yahoo assist and I am pretty sure it is from other people on other computers looking up stuff.

Does it only remember if several searches have been done or if just one has been done? No one in this house has ever done a search for connie or blue posts so I am assuming it shows up like this on everyone's computer.

When you do a search on yahoo it will sometimes finish what you are searching for or give a hint to help you complete your search. How does this work. Is it popular searches that people have searched for previously?For instance, when I go to yahoo search and type in gowilkes it automatically suggests gowilkes connie and gowilkes blue. No other user names come up. Obviously a lot of people have been searching connie and blue posts. LOL! Or is it if just one person has searched it will remember it?
