Some times, vista refuses to acknowledge short URLs.
Here's a fix that worked for me (Vista specific)
In Control Panel/network connections
- Right click your ethernet card (or similar) and select properties
- Select Internet Protocol vrs4 and press the properties button
- Click the "Advanced" button
- Select the DNS tab
- Press the "Append these DNS suffixes (in order)" button
- Add your home server's domain name (eg. home.com)
- Press the required OKs, apply, close ...
All should work correctly now ... This should work automatically - hopefully
