Quick Saving an Image
While surfing the Internet, you might found an interesting image (or other objects) that you want to keep it. Instead right-clicking and saving it, you can drag & drop it onto the Desktop. Just click and drag the image from your browser to an empty area on taskbar or systray, wait a second until the Desktop appears, and then drop it. For better organization, create your favorite images folder on Desktop and drop the image inside it.
Visiting Similar Sites
You want to find web pages similar to the web page you are currently viewing. Have you know about Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer Related Links feature? In Internet Explorer click on Tools – Show Related Links menu. In Netscape Navigator click What's Related button on toolbar.
There is another method. Using a field-supporting search engine (like www.altavista.com), you can enter the term "like:URL" (without the quotation marks). Replace URL with a complete web address and you're on your way to finding similar sites and pages.

Jump to URL Quickly From Any Window
Computer window! Simply replace the current address at the Address bar with your URL of choice. Click on View, Toolbars, Address Bar menu if you don't see an Address bar. For example, you might type winboost, press Enter, and http://www.winboost.com shows up inside the current window.
Opening Downloaded Files Automatically
You can configure Windows to open downloaded files automatically when the download is complete, saving you the time of opening the file yourself. The trick is to set the download file type (zip for example) to open automatically in the Folder Options dialog box. Open Windows Explorer, click on View (Win9x) or Tools (WinMe), Folder Options, and click the File Types tab. In the list, find the download file type you're looking for, click to select it, and click the Edit button (Win9x) or Advanced (WinMe). Uncheck the Confirm Open After Download box and click OK. The next time you download a file of this type, Windows will automatically open the file when the download completes. These tips can be a good choice for several file types, such as image or audio.
Note: Be careful about choosing which files to set up for automatic running. MS Office, for example, can contain macro viruses that could be spread when they are opened. It's best to save those kinds of documents first, and then scan them with your anti-virus software before opening them.

Better Zip Files Name
You have downloaded so many files from Internet until today. Now, can you remember what 'ctv32410.zip' or 'dm2k40.zip' contains inside?
Immediately after downloading something, rename it to something a bit more meaningful. You can have it as long as 255 characters! If it's software, name it appropriately (including full name, version/release number and the company maker).

Resize Your Browser
Netscape Communicator 4.x and Microsoft Internet Explorer 4/5 have several undocumented JavaScript 1.1 commands to resize your browser. Just type one of these commands in the Address/Location URL box:
javascript:resizeTo(640,480);
javascript:resizeTo(800,600);
javascript:resizeTo(1024,768);
javascript:resizeTo(1152,874);
javascript:resizeTo(1200,1024);
javascript:resizeTo(1600,1200);
javascript:resizeTo(1792,1344);
javascript:resizeTo(1800,1400);
javascript:resizeTo(1972,1600);
Now just hit Enter to see the effect.
Note: you can only use the screen resolutions supported by both your video card controller and monitor.

Keep That Cool Flash Animation
Several sites on Internet using flash animation picture to enhance their page. To keep a cool animation, follow these steps. While a Flash animation is in your browser window, activate Find/Search utility (click on Start, Find/Search, Files and Folder) and look in your drive for all files named: *.SWF. Copy and paste the result to your Desktop. Use your Internet Explorer to open the files. Enjoy the animation and save several of it if you want.
Tracking the Data Channel
Use the Tracert facility to track the route that traveled by the data from a Web site server to your computer. To activate Tracert, click on Start, Run menus. Type command and then click OK to show the MS-DOS prompt windows. In the C:\, type TRACERT site name.
On the screen will appear 30 steps (maximum) that showing names, addresses, and response time of all router. Press the Ctrl+C key to exit.
The access speed to a Web site depends on the total response from its channel. Although only five router passed by your data, if each router needs 200 ms to respond, that is worse than nine routers with a total response time of 200 ms. Using the Tracert facility, you can find out the slowest router. If this router is your ISP router, probably you need to try another ISP.

Copying the Favorite folder
There is an easy way to copy your favorite Web address, which is saved in the Internet Explorer, to another computer. Just copy the C:\Windows\Favorites folder to a diskette, and then copy the diskette content to the same location in another computer.
Checking the Web Site Speed
Taking too much time to access your favorite sites? Probably the problem is on the server used by those sites. To make sure that is the problem, use Windows PING facility. Ping is a small program, which sends a 32-bit signal to the Web site server. Next, Ping record the time needed by the server to answer it. To activate Ping:
Click on the Start-Run menus, type command, and then click OK. Type PING "site name" in the MS-DOS prompt window, for example PING www.yahoo.com. In a moment, the result will appear on the screen. A result less than 300ms is normal speed while a result more than 400ms is slow speed.
If "Request timed out" message appears on the screen that means the Web site server is not responding in one second. Probably it happens because the server is too slow, or designed on purpose not to respond to the ping test, or you forgot to specify your name server addresses in the TCP/IP settings dialog box.
