See additionnal info

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Type the url of a http server that is not running, in my case, I use
http://cote:8080/

Actual Results:  
http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/iv.html

Expected Results:  
A error message should pop-up : cannot connect to "cote" on port 8080.

It does the same if I used localhost : I get redirect to
http://www.localhost.net.au/

Also, I try to submit a form with a full url instead of type a url, the result
are the same.
