What is that option called and how do you clear it?

If you were to start typing in a search in google and it gives you options to click searches already similar to what you're typing.

i.e:

If I were to type Computer Forum.
It would catch at like the "p" in computer and finish it for me.
 
In firefox it's internet history, or private data. Also called auto complete. You can disable it in firefox by going to Tools -> Options -> privacy tab and uncheck remember what I enter in forms and search bars. You can clear it by Ctrl+shift+delete, or by clearing private data under tools.

Or you can just use ccleaner, it does the works for any browsers.
 
My favourite :D:P

here is the CCleaner instructions:

*NOTE* CCleaner deletes EVERYTHING out of temp/temporary folders. If you have anything in a temp folder, back it up or move it to a permanent folder prior to running CCleaner!

Download CCleaner from here to clean temp files from your computer.
  • Double click on the file to start the installation of the program.
  • Select your language and click OK, then next.
  • Read the license agreement and click I Agree.
  • Click next to use the default install location. Click Install then finish to complete installation.
  • Double click the CCleaner shortcut on the desktop to start the program.
  • On the "Windows" tab, under "Internet Explorer," uncheck "Cookies" if you do not want them deleted. (If deleted, you will likely need to reenter your passwords at all sites where a cookie is used to recognize you when you visit).
  • If you use either the Firefox or Mozilla browsers, the box to uncheck for "Cookies" is on the Applications tab, under Firefox/Mozilla.
  • Click on the "Options" icon at the left side of the window, then click on "Advanced."
    deselect "Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 48 hours."
  • Click on the "Cleaner" icon on the left side of the window, then click Run Cleaner to run the program.
  • Caution: It is not recommended that you use the "Issues" feature unless you are very familiar with the registry as it has been known to find legitimate items.
  • After CCleaner has completed its process, click Exit.
