Hi relliot499,

Would you do this please :

  • Type in the address bar about:config and press Enter. (ignore the warning)
  • Type in the search bar and look for the preference :
  • browser.urlbar.openViewOnFocus
  • and set its value to true
  • Do the same with these preferences :
  • browser.urlbar.update1
  • browser.urlbar.update1.interventions
  • browser.urlbar.update1.searchTips
  • Then close and restart Firefox.

(if it's only the Top Sites suggestions that you want to get rid of : setting the value of first preference to "false" will do that)

Hope it helps. Thanks.
