I am sorry for this late response ( actually i have joined to group 
yesterday and found ur problem kept unsolved since September).
First one think i want to know : Do u want to stop autocomplete  option 
permanently?
If u , then just type 'about:config' in search bar , type 
'browser.formfill.enable' in filter and right click on it and select 
'toggle'. it will stop browser from remembering previous entries.
