Not so confusing. That www.whatever.com is shown as a (clickable) hyperlink in the text viewer is just because the viewer makes it a link (since there is no other way of embedding hyperlinks in plaintext). If it's in HTML, the HTML-viewer doesn't make it a hyperlink, since it would expect a corresponding <a href> tag. There is none, thus http://www.google.com is just plain text in a HTML viewer. <a href="http://www.google.com";>Goooooooogle</a> should show up as a link in the right context, though.
