I was using an automated program to generate my html, and I wasn't paying attention and I entered http:// into a field that was prepopulated with it, followed by my own domain podfeet.com, so I had entered http://http://podfeet.com. i tested all my links (luckily) and in Firefox (not in Safari or Mozilla) it resolved to Microsoft's website! i just tested it with http://http://mozilla.org and it also goes to Microsoft. I have no problem if you decide to not fix it, chance are slim anyone will ever find it again, but I thought you might find it at the very least interesting! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.in url field enter http://http:// followed by any domain name 2.enter 3.resolves to http://www.microsoft.com Actual Results: see above Expected Results: Safari returns an error saying I'm not connected to the internet if I do this mistake, and Mozilla changes it to "http://www.http.com//mozilla.org" and says not found. given an error message, or taken a diehard Firefox user to ANY website on earth other than Microsoft! ironic, isn't it?
