>>>You would think that if I type "wral" into the browser address bar, it would know that I probably want www.wral.com by default. Instead, it brings up something called Live Search, which shows a list of possible sites. Oddly, the first one is not www.wral.com, but www.wral-tv.com. Maybe the option to handle that is in IE7 somewhere, but I haven't come across it. I know, what about all those people who wanted www.wral.org? That's why I would want a default setting.

>>I trick I was told a few years back about IE. After typing the 'wral', instead of hitting the Enter key, holf the Ctrl key and then hit the Enter key. IE will complete the address for you.
