Maybe it would be also useful to use two web browsers, or two different profiles of the same browser, one for “serious work” (e.g. online banking) and one for “distractions” (e.g. social networks), with blockers set up to prevent misuse. Two different sets of bookmarks, different autocomplete answers, etc. This would make transition from work to wasting time less convenient.
The autocomplete mechanism is like offering someone a drink just when they try to stop drinking.
