While I am sure there is a forum in MSDN somewhere, I suggest trying out
Bill's suggestion first. Might save some trouble.
also, from the second two, it seems the rule would be
.../Domains/<last part>.TLD/<begining>/...
the first one breaks from that though.
another thing to look at would be to see how it handles a simple
http://doamin.tld
such as
http://activestate.com
which any browser but M$ Internet Evil translates would resolve correctly
even if activestate does not explicitly put that as an answerable domain,
while M$IE breaks if they are only set to respond to
http://www.activestate.com
While i have not seen this happen with activestate, I have seen it with
others. this would suggest that M$IE is finicky about parts before
domain.tld
just something that might throw another monkey wrench into your plans.
