The auto suggestion feature shouldn't cause a problem if you ctrl-k to
go to the search box in the browser, that does the same thing as going
to the google webpage and saves a step.

You can still use the add on. All you have to do is open the context
menu on the pages you run radio stations from and authorize the scripts
to run. It can take a while to get the scripts you need on many pages
authorized so things run smoothly, but it can be done. The only problem
I encountered is that when you authorize youtube to play videos, the
autocomplete feature that makes the autorefresh problem occur comes
back, so I only temporarily authorize youtube when I want to play a
video and revoke the permissions if I need to do another search, a bit
clumsy, but I couldn't find any combination of scripts that attempt to
run on the page that allowed video playback but did not bring back the
auto suggestion feature.
With a bit of effort, you can get the pages you visit regularly going
with the scripts needed for the features you use allowed and other
scripts forbidden. For example, it took me a bit to figure out which
script on io9.com allowed post comments to show, but once I figured it
out, the comments show up and the page loads faster without a lot of
jumping back to the top of the page. No Script is not an install and go
add on, it takes some setup work, but I have found it worth every bit of
effort.

Thinking that by adding the add-on No Script would help mitigate the
spontaneous auto-loading of firefox, I installed No Script. I did not
give it enough time to know if it was accomplishing anything because
of its drawbacks for my situation. My radio stations that I had
bookmarked would no longer play, so, I removed No Script. I did make
the suggested change to Google preferences by checking the radio
button "do not provide query suggestions in the search box." That
seems to be working in Google using Firefox. Regards: Ted Larson
