[Clippings] Problems with Clippings and Mac OS 10.3.x & 10.4.x

[Alex Eng]

The auto-complete list in the 2nd screen shot is not from Clippings -
it's Firefox's auto-complete feature.  Select an item in the list and
press shift+delete to delete it.

Note: screen shots were provided by Steve in his reply to me; however
the total content exceeds the 40K limit in this mailing list and
unfortunately cannot be posted here.

If I enter my social security number in the space, for example, then Clippings will dependably include that as an option the next time I want to enter something.  I did not do anything to create these entries.  Clippings did this automatically, and there is no record of these entries in the Clippings manager.  If Clippings isn't doing this, then what is?
