How do I prevent firefox from loading page when I type in first few letters?
I am giving my laptop to my daughter. I deleted history and emptied cache. Yet if she were to type the letter 'c', an adult site I have visited pops up - WITH MY USERNAME AND PASSWORD ALREADY TYPED IN! This gives her full access to my adult activity on the site.
How do I prevent this from happening? I want to totally remove this site from firefox's 'memory', especially the username and password.

To log you out of all websites your gonna want to clear the cookies:
- Firefox in top left corner > Options > Privacy > Show Cookies >Remove all Cookies
I would also recommend resetting Firefox if you are no longer gonna use it yourself :
- Firefox in top left corner>Help>Troubleshooting Information>Reset Firefox
See here for more information:

Create a new profile to reset all previous data.
See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem.
