How do I
When I type in a little box for instance the google search box, or the hotmail sign in box or the subject line of this post if i type the first letter of something i've typed in before it pops the whole thing up. How do I erase this so it doesn't pop anything up?

You gotta find Autocomplete somewhere and turn it off.

Tools -> Internet Options -> Content -> Autocomplete

You can fiddle around with the options there.

You'll have to do a lot more than disable Autocomplete if you want to surf porn with impunity.
