Thats true, so if you have https, we could always truncate the 's' after
http
and pass it to URL to check whether it throws MalformedURLException.

should work.....

Unfortunately, there's a gotcha to this approach -- the JVM you are
running on has to understand the scheme part of the URL you are testing
for.  For example, you'll get a MalformedURLException on any "https:" URL
(even if it's actually correct) if your JVM doesn't have the JSSE classes
(or equivalent) that understands SSH.
