be mistaken; Opera doesn't.

Um....I've seen this error 'forever', and I only run Firefox.
Perhaps you should add another non-working browser to your list...?
To make it work, there may or may not be something in Firefox's
"Preferences" (or, on Windows, "Options") but you can make it work in
any case as follows:
1. Browse to about:config
2. If you see a warning "This could void your warranty", answer that
you'll be prudent, and proceed.
3. type "fixup" (without the quotes) in the Filter box.
4. Set the following preferences (e.g. by double-clicking them):
Name New value
browser.fixup.alternate.enabled true
browser.fixup.alternate.prefix www.
browser.fixup.alternate.suffix .com
I'm not sure whether these preferences take effect immediately, only in
new tabs, in new windows, or only after a restart.
Best regards,
Tony.
