This is a question Driven to Madness

Captain Placid asks: What annoying things do significant others, workmates and other people in general do that drive you up the wall? Do you want to kill your other half over their obsessive fridge magnet collection? Driven to distraction over your manager's continued use of Comic Sans (The Font of Champions)? Tell us.

True, but if you're using IE and have google as a home page, it opens with the search box having focus, and it's not just a couple of tabs to focus on the address bar. So then you've got all the time and effort involved in moving your hand from the keyboard to the mouse. Of course, you will eventually have to do that anyway, but typing the name in the search box gives you at least an extra second or two of masterful inaction.

I don't use auto guess in the address bar, as the misses uses the computer too. So I have it set not to look at my history nor bookmarks, for slightly obvious reasons.And people that type the whole URL rather than hit control enter to put in the www and com.

I've never used IE. It's Linux at home and Firefox on Windows at work.
