  18. I have a completely blank screen with no 'most visited' section in view. Have tried the ctr, shift b strategy but that doesn't bring anymore into view. Any ideas how to get this 'most visited' link up in another way?

    I am also searching for a PERMANENT way to disable this feature. I already have my setting set to clear history when the browser closes, but "most visited" and thumbnail preview still appear on new browser sessions. If there is not a way to disable this permanently I will remove the browser and go back to FireFox.

  21. OK Now I have clicked a "disable " option in the bottom right corner of the new tab window and literally everything is gone. How do I Re-Enable Most Visited? This is truly frustrating!!

  22. It turned out it was an annoying ASK.com plug-in doing that - deleted it and all is back to normal
    Thank God
