Default drop down search words

Hi can anyone tell me how to turn off the feature that
remembers what I typed for a search? Ya know say I
previosly searched for "drumsets" and if I now want to
search for something that begins with a "d" the
word "drumset" drops down..... thank you kindly in advance.
