That is a real bitcoin address, not a testnet address.

bitcoinmaster and whittles, you guys should realise that testnet bitcoins are just pretend bitcoins used to test Bitcoin-related software and services without putting real money on the line. You can't send them to real Bitcoin addresses or use them in real Bitcoin transactions. (Real bitcoin addresses start with a 1, testnet addresses start with either m or n.)

So how do you generate a testnet address?

Run Bitcoin with the -testnet parameter. eg. at the command line, run "bitcoin-qt -testnet" (without the quotes) or add "testnet=1" (again, without the quotes) to your bitcoin.conf file. Bitcoin will then generate a testnet wallet if you don't already have one and start downloading the testnet blockchain. Note that unless you're testing Bitcoin software or services, there is literally no reason to ever use this.

if you don't know how to, then you probably don't need to
