Jeri and Stilly River Sage - Thanks for the information. I had wondered what the https was, and how there could be the same "address" on a different prefix.
One big problem with all this internet stuff is that they keep changing everything (sometimes due to the independent World Wide Web committee and sometimes because Microcrap have added extras to sbotage the opposition's browsers), but NOBODY actually tells US (the intelligent non-computer-expert) what the hell is going on.
In this case I look at a web address and realise that it is NOT STANDARD, so I am automatically 100% suspicious of it until someone supplies me with accurate information.
Quack!
GtD.
