The auto-complete features in Netscape and Internet Explorer rely on the history file (a log of every address you type in the browser) to anticipate what you are going to type. There is a button in the Options to clear the history file--that will instantly solve your problem. Otherwise, you'll have to not visit ADT until the history file ages out the entry--that's usually after about 9 days or so.
The drawback to clearing the history file is that all of a sudden her autocompletes and history entries are gone, and that might have her asking you some questions...
On Netscape, another setting to check is to clear the location bar (also done in Options). If you click on the downward pointing triangle next to the address entry box (where you type in web site addresses), it will so you the list of the last 10 or so addresses you've type in. That could be a problem too.
Hope that helps,
Saki
