I saved a bookmark to the following address http://localhost/myadm/index.php ( = phpMyAdmin index location). I tried to use the bookmark and was relocated to the following url http://www.localhost.net.au, although the web server was not running. I suppose it should give a message that it cannot reach the page , rather than redirecting to a totally different site. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. bookmark a page on the localhost 2. stop the Apache web server on the local machine 3. open the bookmark Actual Results: I cannot reach the web pages on the local webserver (Apache) because the webserver is stopped , but get redirected to a url that I did not bookmark Expected Results: give a notification that the page is not reachable (unless you have stock in localhost.net.au) I use the Modern theme but think this is irrelevant. I work with the following browsers : IE , Opera , Mozilla ( since recently switched to Phoenix)

Confirming as I could reproduce w/ Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030504 Mozilla Firebird/0.6 -> NEW -> All -> General Changing summary. More easy way to reproduce: If your computer doesn't run web service, just click the link http://localhost/ Actual Results: Mozilla Firebird redirected to http://www.localhost.net.au/ Expected Results: Error message "The connection was refused when attempting to contact localhost." should be shown as mozilla.
