Few Questions

[species8350]

1. My browser, IE, takes some time to load pages. Are there any
options that I could switch off, that would not compromise the system,
and would speed up page loading?

2. Regarding searching the hard disk. What are 'Index Locations'?

3. If I want to start a programme from an icon, is the best way to
simply create a shortcut?

Thanks

If only some pages are slow to load, that would suggest an external network
problem or the web server you are using is not responding perhaps due to a
heavy load.

2. Regarding searching the hard disk. What are 'Index Locations'?

3. If I want to start a programme from an icon, is the best way to
simply create a shortcut?

For frequently used applications I create small icons at the left hand end
of my task bar. You can increase the size of this dispaly area. I have five
icons.

1.try turning off the phishing filter, or disabling any IE add on's you have installed.

2. folders on your hard drivers that are included in the index.

3. if it something you use regularly, you can create either or both a desk top icon or a quick link icon. the options are both under right click menu.

Do you use the short-cut method. Or do you use a different technique?

would not worry about the virtual spanking,
the resident net nannies get off on doing it.

They are shortcuts, but there is no arrow.

Hi,

Under right click, I seem only to have the 'create shortcut' option?

I can believe it.
Paradoxically, they provide useful information - which actually
encourages the behaviour they wish to deter.

I have noticed how much time the phishing filter seems to use.
I am wondering though if this is time well spent. No one wants to go
phishing.

creating shortcut is correct, but there should be choice, for desktop, start menu, quick link .

with all the new attacks going on, the crooks are moving from mail to web sites.
we need all the protection we can get.
