I described the
Autoscan functionality in
tip 3054.
The default domain types are:
.com .org .eduNOTE: IE 6.0 adds .net.
To add additional domain types:
1. Use Regedt32 to navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Internet Explorer/Main/Url Template
2. Add a string (REG_SZ) value name of n and set the data value to www.%s.<domain type>.
NOTE: IE searches based upon the string value name. The domain type in value name 1 is searched before the domain type in value name 2.
Using the following .reg file, I replaced the existing values and added a .gov:
REGEDIT4 \[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\UrlTemplate\] \[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\UrlTemplate\] "1"="www.%s.com" "2"="www.%s.org" "3"="www.%s.net" "4"="www.%s.edu" "5"="www.%s.gov"
