I suppose it would be his prerogative, but the widespread standard use of 
the term "addressbook" (or written with space: "address book"), is to 
indicate the file your email client uses for storage of email addresses. 
You can open abook.mab with a text editor to examine it (but don't make 
any changes <g>).

Web "addresses" are called URLs or URIs. Uniform Resource Locator or 
Uniform Resource Identifier.
