I forwarded anima2007.be to folioscope.awn.com. Can anyone tell me why
it is working in Firefox on pc and macintosh but not in explorer-pc and
not in safari-mac?

Hi Jenke,

Firefox will look for the address with a www if the domain does not hit
a site without the www. You will see, that when you type in
www.anima2007.be in Mac Safari and IE, that you will be forwarded to
your existing space.

To fix this, simply go into your control panel and add a web forwarding
for your domain (without the www). Right now you use "*" which only
applies to subdomains (of which www is one.)

To see more on forwarding, you can have a look at our "Show me" guide on
web forwarding here:

Have fun! :)
