This includes, for example, your bookmarks, extensions and other preferences. When using Dragon on a different computer, sign into your account to download your custom settings to the new computer.
- Autocomplete searches and URLs - If enabled, Comodo Dragon will perform a look-up on all links on the current webpage to fetch their IP addresses. This will cause the page to load faster should you click on one of the links as the IP address is already resolved. By default, this option is disabled. See Prediction Service for details on this option.
- Show suggestions for similar pages when a page can't be found-If you mistype a website address, or cannot connect to page, Dragon uses Google to provide page recommendations. The recommendations are essentially a ‘good guess’ at what you meant to type.
- Make searches and browsing better - Dragon sends anonymized data about the sites you visit.
- Google Drive search suggestions - Google Drive is a cloud storage service where you can save documents, images, videos and other projects. Enabling this option means Dragon will include relevant suggestions from files in your Google Drive when you search for a term. See 'Perform Drive Search' if you need help with this

- Send a 'Do not track' request with your browsing traffic - If enabled, this setting informs websites of your preference that they should not track your actions. Please note that, while this setting does afford an additional degree of privacy, websites and advertising networks are not legally compelled to honor these requests.
