Fill In Web Addresses Automatically

You can choose a Web address from a list of sites that you have already visited instead of typing the entire Web address each time you want to visit the site. When you begin to type the address in the Address bar, a list automatically appears below it. From that list, you can quickly select the one you want—saving time and keystrokes.
