>IE shouldn't care. It should be however you typed it in. If you used a domain name (
www.levelextreme.com) then that should stay as the web site uses relative pathing from there. If you used the IP address (205.205.57.4) then that will display.

Hi Larry,
I key
www.myserver.com into IE. When the website comes up, it changes the data in the Address box to the ip address. There is a domain registered to the IP address. Changing my hosts file is not an option as I want this to be the same for everyone.
