Internet Explorer is most useful free browser on net. Here are a few Explorer tips I find useful. To search for a particular word or phrase on a web page just press CTRL + F to open Find dialog.
Hold down shift key when you click a link to have it open in a new window. If you know you're coming back to same page, a new window is faster to open and close than backtracking pages.
Hit Backspace key on your keyboard to go back a page, or press ALT + Left Arrow. ALT + Right Arrow goes forward a page, and ALT + Home take you to your home page.
Hit Spacebar to jump down page one screen length. Hold shift key down as you press Spacebar to jump UP page. Use Up and Down Arrows to scroll slower.
In IE 5.5, in most cases you can just type "domain_Name.com" instead of typing "www" first. IE knows to search for it on web. Works for most sites, but a few can't be found without www - that's a server issue, not an IE issue.
CTRL + O opens dialog to type in a web address.
Press F11 key to open your browser into full screen mode. Press it again to leave full screen mode.
Right-click tool bar and select Auto-hide. This hides tool bar for true full screen surfing. To use hidden tool bar, just move your mouse to top edge of screen. Move your mouse away and it disappears again. You can do this with your taskbar too, by clicking Start button, pointing to settings, and clicking Taskbar & Start Menu. Then place a check by Autohide feature and click Apply.
