My Useful Web

First of all, you need to decide which browser you would want to use to acces the webs. For many the Internet Explorer is the most common one as it is always bundled up with Microsoft Windows.

But did you know there are other web browsers you can choose from? Others perform

better than Internet Explorer.

My favorite of all is Firefox. It loads faster and the interface is just so much better. Also if a website is infected with virus it won’t penetrate your Operating System if you won’t download malicious links. But with Internet explorer, your computer is more prone to virus infection unless of course you use a powerful antivirus. During the succeeding days I will post some free antivirus you can download online.

Tabbed Browsing

What I like with Internet explorer when it comes to tabbed browsing is that when you open a link in a new tab it will open next to the tab you’re currently in. With Firefox a new tab will open after the last one.

Add ons

Firefox offers a myriad of add ons for your optimum online experience. You can install a player that opens as a toolbar so you don’t have too many windows open at the same time.

Another addon that I like very much is linky. It allows you to open multiple tabs simultaneously. You can view and download linky here.

Password Manager

Firefox also offers to remember your password the first time you open and login to a site using their browser. If you choose firefox to remember password the next time you open the same site username and password boxes are already filled.

Bookmarking

Firefox is also superb when it comes to bookmarking. Just click on the stars at the address bar to bookmark the site and you’re on.

These are just a few examples why I like Firefox.

There’s another web browser called Opera and some people prefer it. I haven’t personally used it but you can try it for yourself.
