URL domain completion

I primarily use KDE Konqueror to view webpages from my news ticker. But
every once in a while, instead of loading a mozilla session, I'll just
re-use a Konqueror window to view a local web server at my work place.
But for some blasted reason, when I insert the hostname (minus the
domain), it will not autocomplete correctly.
Here's an example:
URL - http://main
- goes to www.main.com
- should go to main.amherst.com
if I ping main from an xterm, it does resolve correctly, since I have my
domain listed in the /etc/resolv.conf file:
PING - main
- goes to main.amherst.com
So why can't Konqueror resolve the addess correct, but ping can?
