    Yes. I have to have the http:// in there too. It has to be perfection.

    Never any more but some sites actually don't configure their site to work without www (Like bipper explained I think) so then I'm like grr. On our server at work when we set up sites we have to add two headers, one with www, and one without, if you don't it won't work without. Doh. When I do try and type www I end up typing ww or wwww. x_x

    I do most of the time, just out of habit.

    Does it really? I've never actually encountered a site that made me do it.
    There's some site I go to quite often that requires it ... I can't remember which one though

    no matter how important something might be (ie. a giant meteor is in the sky and threatening the planet) you can always just stop in at the Golden Saucer and gamble on some dodos running around a track.

    I tend to type it out, not because I find it needed, just out of habit.

    I hope out the whole thing, every time. I can type "http://www." in a fraction of a second.

    Having said that, I can also type incredibly fast. I don't get bullied...I don't get bullied...I don't...I don't....

    I do it out of familiarity rather than necessity.

    I used to always do it until a few months ago, when I discovered that it could be done without. So yeah, I'm slowly getting the www out of my system. I have relapses often, though, and they aggravate me more than they should. It's silly.

    Most sites I go to are bookmarked, so I do not need to type anything. But when I do, I usually do not bother in doing so. Though I noticed when I tried to use IE for my university website, I had to type in: "http://www." which I do not have to do in Firefox.
