Indexing "Without WWW" while it is already redirected to the "WWW" version

[kasiddiqi]

Hi Guys

My websites are being indexed without "WWW" while the 'http://abc.com' is redirected to 'http://www.abc.com'.

Now what I believe is that the URL encoded in my website files are written as 'http://abc.com' rather than 'http://www.abc.com'

And since now Google has removed the "Set Preferred Domain" option from the Webmaster Tools, I can't set the preferred version of the URL.

Oh & Some pages are indexed with "WWW" & Some are indexed "without WWW"

Now I think that it's not an issue, but a lot of people have been saying that this may hurt the rankings..

Some comments/tips would be really appreciated

If its been redirected it will filter down to Google and get updated in the SERP so don't fret too much.  If you are worried you can always rel=canonical it to your preferred address which will back up any preferred index issues.
