Address line

When I try to go to a new url I *have* to type
in "http://www."
When I had Windows 98 all I had didn't have to type in
those letter/symbols.
Is there a way to eliminate them with Windows XP?

Hello!

AutoCorrect feature can correct common errors. For example, if you
accidentally type "htp://" or "http:\\" instead of "http://," Internet
Explorer 5 and 6 can automatically correct the error as soon as you click Go
or press ENTER.
To turn on the inline AutoComplete feature for Web addresses, follow these
steps in Internet Explorer:

1.. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
2.. Click the Advanced tab.
3.. Under Browsing, click the Use inline AutoComplete for Web addresses
check box, and then click OK.
If this does not help, open Registry (regedit.exe) and goto the following
key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersi
on\URL\DefaultPref
ix
In the right-pane, set the data for the value "default" to "http://"

NOTE: I have attached the prefix .reg with this mail.

Regards,
Ramesh
