 Stop |
The stop button stops ANY current operations by Internet Explorer. It will stop any type of file from loading. It can also be used to stop animations from continuing once a page is loaded. If you press it before a page has finished loading, the page will display everything it had finished loading before the stop button was pressed. If a document is completely loaded and there are no animations, movies, or other files still running, the stop button will have no immediate function. |
 Home |
This button will return you to the page you have selected as the default start-up page for Internet Explorer. It will not take you back to the beginning of your web browsing but will return you to your home location from where you are. If you press back after reaching your home page, you will go back to the page you left after you hit the Home button. |
 Refresh |
This button will reload the current page or document that you are viewing. It is useful if the page updates very frequently so that you can view these changes as soon as they are available. If you are loading a document and the transfer was interrupted, you can reload the full document again by clicking here. |
 History |
The addresses of pages you have accessed during your current Internet session are kept in the History list. Instead of using Back and Forward successively you can go in ‘one jump’ to any of the pages in the History list. The History list is retained even if you close your browser. |
Fortunately, accessing and using the Internet is fairly simple. Let this tutorial be your guide to the Internet as you connect and explore.
