Tips For the Novice Internet Surfers
On any given day there are thousands of novice users on the net for the first time. Here are a few tips for the novice user. 1. Surf in Security First thing you are going to do is open your browser. Whether you have a PC or laptop. Internet explorer is installed on your computer, It is not the best and has its limitations. You may thinking it is hard to surf the world wide web. After discovering Firefox, you will be more than happy to go surfing. Firefox has an integrated firewall that will help protect you from spyware and other Adawares. 2. No need to type the whole URL all the time. Firefox allows you to use a drop down menu. For example in internet explorer you had to type in the whole website address; on fire fox all you need to do is type in "b" and in the drop down menu you will find bass pro shops. Its a lot fun this way. 3. All your pages come up in one window. This is just to cool; You can surf in tab. Which by the way is truly a great thing. With internet explorer when you click on a link, you are asked if you want to open in a new window. Firefox will allow you to open this in the same window in a different tab. So they are all right there to access easily. Let me explain: here you are looking at yahoo.com and you want to see the sports, just use the right click on the mouse and select open in new tab and there you will have two links in the same window. Then all you have to do is click on the tab in the window to switch between the two of them. You can have as many tabs open as you like or can handle. Book marking a tab is a better way to go. It is a smart way of keeping track of the places you want to come back to. Very efficient when you are doing some research on several projects, or have a lot of different sites you want to remember. 4. Downloads will all go to the same place With Firefox all your downloads will be moved automatically into a download file. Click on tools and then select download, a pop up window will appear. Simply scroll down until you find the file or program you want.Save time and a lot of headaches. For the first little while you will want to save your downloads to your desktop and then move them to a different folder of your choosing. Firefox is free to download. Type in Firefox in your search engine and viola it is there to choose. 5. Anti virus protection You need to have this There are lots of viruses on the net that can damage your computer just by surfing. If you don't have anti virus protection you can lose your hard drive all together. AVG is a good program to down load. Take your time when learning to surf. There is lots of information to learn when you are just starting.
