I use Netscape 3.01. I just type "adager" and it tries that, then if that is not successful, it tries "www.adager.com"
IE in any version does not do that.

gone to Wirt's web site by typing just "aics-research.com" (I said, "why
not try that today?"), the thought came to type just "adager.com" and
PRESTO! I have not changed anything in Adager's DNS setup since those
HP3000-L discussions a long time ago (Neil Harvey was involved). But I
have certainly upgraded my version of Netscape. So, it appears that it is
a browser-dependent property.
Anyhow, this is great! I can now save thousands of keystrokes a year.
