I recently installed SP2 for Windows XP and now when I attempt to go to a web
page I have to type in http:// to get there, I can no longer type in
www.xxxxx.com. Does anyone know why or how I can fix this?

Thank you!

Using Regedit, browse to the following registry key and make sure the noted
setting is correct:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoComplete]
"Append Completion"="yes"

also see the following values:

"Use AutoComplete"="yes"
"AutoSuggest"="no"
