On a CNC machine we have an old version of Firefox 3.5.5. (This I cannot update). We want to use the browser to make connection to our intranet. Our intranet adress were I want to go to is http://name/. Unfortunately when I type this, the browser automaticly attaches .com at the end of this line. This I do not want, because then the browser tries to make connection to the wrong URL. Can I change a parameter somewhere so that the browser does not automatically attaches .com or something at the end of a URL?

Again I cannot change to a newer version of the browser due to other software which is installed on the machine.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

You can also disable this feature by setting the browser.fixup.alternate.enabled to false on the about:config page.

Type about:config in the URL bar and hit Enter. Accept the warning.

Type this in the search bar at the top browser.fixup.alternate.suffix - then right-click the pref that appears and select Modify. Clear the "box" and hit OK. Then restart Firefox.
