TIPS

If you can't find http://www.anysite.com/pages/missing.html, try the parent directory, http://www.anysite.com/pages, and see if you can link to it from there. If not, drop back to http://www.anysite.com.

When you type a URL, just start it with www. Your browser will automatically fill in http://.
Use the keyboard rather than your mouse to cruise the Web more quickly. Press the Tab key to move from link to link, even within image maps, and press Enter to click on a link. Press Ctrl+B to organize your favorite bookmarks.
To create a shortcut to the current page: Just right-click on the page and select Create Shortcut. You can also cerate shortcuts by dragging and dropping Web links directly to your desktop.
Right-click on a link and select "Open in New Window." This will open the page in a new Navigator window, allowing you to browse in your original window while waiting for pages to download to the other.
You can save a page or graphic from the Web to your local drive. Right-click on it and select "Save Picture As...," then pick a location on your drive to store it.

WEB UPDATE DISPLAY. You can find out when a Website was last updated by entering the following in the address/location bar:

Don't use a single word in a search query or the search will turn up everything under the sun - most of it useless. search for incontext phrases for more on-target results. Usually, you can search for an exact match to a text string when you enclose it with quotation marks. Check your engine's instructions for the most accurate details.
Avoid common "spamdex" terms - words that Web site marketers often add into hidden parts of a page's HTML coding. This is done so that these pages wind up on the top of query results lists and get numerous hits. spamdex terms include sex, free, shareware, Web and Windows.
If your PC connects through a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server - which means its IP address is automatically assigned by the server - the link between the server and your PC may sometimes become muddled.  To restore it click Star > Run, type cmd, and press Enter.  At the command prompt, type ipconfig/ release and press Enter.  Then type ipconfig/renew and press Enter. ipconfig  /release

ipconfig  /flushdns

ipconfig  /renew

ipconfig  /registerdns
