It's a feature of bash, as has been mentioned. According to the bash
manpage, you can get rid of it by adding a line "set disable-completion
on" in your /etc/inputrc (for the entire system) or ~/.inputrc (for
whichever user's home directory it's in). Be advised you have to restart
bash for this to take effect. Other shells might use a different file.

i don't know why it's doing it when you press esc twice. i have to press
esc four times to do it...
