This is not a major problem but just an annoying one.

I’ve just in the last week shifted to The Planet on a dual XEON server.
The website has been shifted over from a Lunarpages account (same setup but on a shared server)

Now my niggly issue:

When I put www.laptopvideo2go.com/forum in the address bar of IE7 or Firefox the link becomes http://laptopvideo2go.com/forum (ie the www is removed)

When I put in www.laptopvideo2go.com/forum/ in the address bar of IE 7 or Firefox the link becomes http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/forum/ (the www stays)

This only happens with our server.
What could be casuing this ?

It’s got me quite beaten as to why/what.

Any help appreciated.

BTW the server is awesome, no looking back to shared hosting or Lunarpages
