If you use Mozilla, you might have discovered the "feature" in Mozilla which e.g. decides that when you say you want to go to a URL like "localhost:1234", that you really mean "http://www.localhost.net.au/";.
You can turn this behaviour off by going to the URL "about:config", finding the "keyword.enabled" setting, and setting it to "false". (Some Mozilla derivatives might have a proper UI setting for "Enable Internet Keywords" or something like that, but this should work equally well for Mozilla, Firebird, and other variants.) I'm posting this here because an off-hand mention of it on #slug made several people very happy :) -Andrew -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
