It's only needed preceding a word beginning with *co addresses with org don't need it, or all the other parts of the address don't need it, just anything beginning with *co. ps I dont use( ) * is quicker Christine

You only have to use brackets for (.)com and (.)co(.)uk URLS as .net, .org etc are not censored. The brackets need only be placed around the full stop directly preceding those censored endings, not throughout the URL.

Idiot question: why do all the URLs on this site have parts of the address in (parentheses) with instructions to us to remove the parentheses? This seems; well barmy. Happy hunting in 2005, Stephen http(.)(//)(www)(.)(tarling)(.)(net)(/) remove the ()!!!
