I have this problem:

I used to just write the address of a website an IE would
automatically connect me to it, for example I would
write "Www.msn.com" or "Www.yahoo.com" or any site and IE
would connect me to those, but now it doesn't, it just
says "Make sure the path or address is correct". The only
way I can make IE connect to any web site is by
writing "http://" then the web site's address. Does
anyone knows how to solve this problem or can help me
solve it?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
