Finding the information you want on the Internet

You can find information on the Web in a variety of ways:

Click the Search button on the toolbar to gain access to a number of search providers. Type a word or phrase in the Search box.
Type go, find, or ? followed by a word or phrase in the Address bar. Internet Explorer starts a search using its predetermined search provider.
After you go to a Web page, you can search for specific text on that page by clicking the Edit menu, and then clicking Find (on this page).

Note

If a Web address doesn't work, Internet Explorer asks if you want to search for similar Web addresses. You can change this setting so that Internet Explorer searches automatically without prompting. For more information, click Related Topics below.
