my browser will not recognize "www" addresses, only http:// Is there a
setting that you can enable so that you don't have to type the full address
into the address bar?

I wasn't aware this would apply to anyone using IE5.5 but see if it
looks relevant.

Problems in Windows Explorer or the Windows shell after you install
security update MS06-015 (15 Apr-06)

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms06-015.mspx has
been revised to v1.1 to reflect the issues in KB918165 and now points
to the KB918165.

Now may not be the time to learn Regedit.
I suggest you use a .reg file already done for the purpose.

http://patch-info.de/WinXP/Downloads/KB908531_Share-To-Web.zip

Unzip it, extract the .reg file to a folder, right-click it and select
Merge and confirm when asked.
