Save Time and Effort in typing URL Addresses

If you want to know is there any quicker way to auto-completion of the whole website address in Internet Explore, like "WWW" or ".com".

Here is the tip :

With Internet Explorer 6 in Windows XP, typing web addresses is really convenient. All you have to do is type the domain of an address, such as Microsoft, and then press [ctrl]+ENTER. Internet explorer automatically wraps 'http://www....com' around what you typed. In case you are not sure whether the site uses a .com extension or some other one ? Just type the domain of the address and hit Enter.Internet Explorer tries to find the site by using the various extensions that are used by Websites . If you need to edit an address , you can use [Ctrl]+LEFT ARROW and [ctrl]+RIGHT ARROW to easily move between different parts of the address separated by periods.

Or you could just get Firefox. I type google, I get google, I type tumblr, I get tumblr, et cetera.
