If you use Internet Explorer to surf the Web, I’ve got a great tip for you. The next time you have to type in a Web site address, just enter the domain name, then do a control-enter by holding down the control key and hit enter. For example, instead of typing http://www.yourcomputerminute.com, just type in “yourcomputerminute” all by itself, nothing else, then do a control enter. Internet Explorer will automagically add the http://www in the beginning and the dotcom at the end. Try it!

Do a spyware check.
I used to be able to do the control enter shortcut for the www – .com but it stopped working. I had spyware which I have removed but he cotrol enter won’t work. What could be the problem and what could I do to fix this?
I have the same problem. ctrl and enter no longer works to populate the “www” prefix and “.com” suffix. Does anyone know the fix?
I’ve seen a solution that requires making a new registry key.
