Hi,

Just thought I'd try asking here, because I'm not having much luck with
Google...

Many times, way too many damn times, if I try to access some address
with Firefox it will go into HTTPS mode when I don't want it to.

For instance, I've actually typed http://192.168.1.254 to get into my
router's admin page, because it doesn't do HTTPS.  And if Firefox
doesn't get instant results with what I typed it changes it to 
https://192.168.1.254 (which is never going to work).

Likewise with other devices that I might be testing on my LAN, and may
be unplugged/reset while I'm testing, so I want to just hammer away at
the same address sitting in the browser's address bar without the damn
browser changing it on me.

Grrrrrrrr, I hate autocorrect style of crap everywhere they put it.

The HTTPS-only modes are disabled.  Stupid option that is.  Many things
do NOT have HTTPS.  Most things don't need it.  It just increases
workload to encrypt unimportant things.

And I wish they'd stop hiding HTTP and HTTPS in the address bar.  Let
me see the letters there so I know what it's doing.

Does anybody have any answers about how to force the browser to stop
doing that, always, every time, never disobey me?
