I think this is the "Internet Keywords" option (and yes, it annoys me 
too). To turn it off, go to about:config in firefox, type keyword into 
the box at the top (it's a filter) and double-click on keyword.enabled 
so that it is set to false.

If it's already at false, then I don't know what is going on, but since 
it's been false for me, I haven't had a problem with the url guessing.
