Tips for Netscape users

Whether you are switching from Netscape Navigator or just want to use more than one browser, it's easy to learn and use Internet Explorer. From keyboard shortcuts to bookmarks, you can make the transition simple and fast.

• Keep unique and separate settings for Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator. If you installed another Web browser after installing Internet Explorer and Internet Tools, some of your Internet Explorer settings may have changed. For more information see:

  Resetting Internet Explorer settings

• Compare terms in Navigator and Internet Explorer. Although these programs are quite similar, there are a few differences in terminology. For more information, see:

• Keep all of your bookmarks as favorites. Internet Explorer automatically imports all of your bookmarks (without altering your bookmarks as they are displayed in Navigator) as Internet Explorer favorites. For more information, see:

  Sharing bookmarks and favorites

• Use your favorite keyboard shortcuts. Internet Explorer and Navigator share many of the same keyboard shortcuts. In addition, Internet Explorer is fully accessible using the keyboard, so you can park your mouse if you want to. For more information, see:

• Customize how Internet Explorer looks, how you connect, your security settings, and many other options. These settings and more are available by clicking the Tools menu and then clicking Internet Options.
