Address requires input of http://

[Stumpy]

Something has happened to explorer that requires me to
input http:// before I enter a www. website. Anyone know
the fix for this problem? I have to believe some settings
have changed to cause this to happen. Any info on this
will be appreciated.

"IE is making me type "http://" before everything!
Before, I could type

www.google.com or google.com and it would work. now I

can't load ANY webpage without typing the full address.
This is getting very annoying. Any Ideas???"
