the tab that opens when I click on AliExpress on SpeedDial is best.aliexpress.com , not aliexpress.com .
best.aliexpress.com is a bogus, probably dangerous site.

And what is the address defined in the SD entry?

best.aliexpress.com is a bogus, probably dangerous site.

Why?

What convinces you that the best.aliexpress.com website is bogus? It shares the same aliexpress second-level domain name as the aliexpress.com site (which auto-defaults to www.aliexpress.com), which normally means that the only difference between the sites is the third-name server structure providing the particular access to that second domain name (in this case, the 'best' being an aebridge server, the 'www' being an akamai server). Note: domain names are constructed from right to left, so the first level or 'top' domain name is the rightmost, in this case .com.

Dotted - from right to left. Then inside the site, you can have pages/directories - going after the site URL, with slashes left to right.
Example: Facebook - www.facebook.com being main page, there is some developers.facebook.com in same domain, otherwise you have pages like www.facebook.com/John.Hawthorne etc.
