I know I am stupid but I hate the Google thing by which when you enter a word a window drops open to show all the words you might type at that point! How can I get rid of this unwanted prompt that is such a nuisance?
Being baffled by computers hardly makes you stupid. In fact, I’d say it makes you “one of us” since everyone I know gets befuddled by some aspect of technology eventually.
In this instance, you’re talking about Google Suggest and it’s one of those things where either you love it or you hate it. And it sounds like you’ve moved along that continuum since you started trying it.

Some one sent me an email with a picture that opens with Google Gadgets I guess. Since that time I have had two windows that cannot be deleted. At the top they say Google Gadget Setup with a short message below. When the red X is clicked on one window it goes away and the other window pops up. When that window is clicked it goes away but the other window comes back so I can’t get rid of the darn thing. I would like to get rid of the whole Google Program as it is invasive and I am sick of the problem. I don’t need it. It will not uninstall.

I have the same problem with the Google Gadget Setup windows, but I have not found a solution on the net. Apparently, it is not so easy to just call someone at Google and say “What the **** is going on here?”.
