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.

Speed up the Dial-Up Networking
Double-click the Dial-Up Networking icon in My Computer. Right-click on a connection that you want, click Properties. Click Server Type tab, and then uncheck the NetBEUI and IPX/SPX options (make sure the TCP/IP option still checked). Next, uncheck the Log on to network option. Click OK, and OK to close the dialog box. Double-click Network icon on the Control Panel, click the Dial-Up Adapter option from the list, and then click Properties. Click the Bindings tab, and then remove all options on the list, except the TCP/IP option. Click OK and OK.
Removing Logon to the Internet
Every time you connect to the Internet, you always see the logon dialog box that asking you to enter your name and password. Do not waste you time just to reenter the same name and password. You can remove this logon stuff in a second. To do so, click the Start, Programs, Accessories menus, and then open the Dial-Up Networking folder. Click the Connections, Settings menus. Uncheck the Prompt for Information Before Dialing option. If you want to redial when the channel is busy, check the Redial option, and then enter the information in the appropriate box.
Speed up TCP/IP
You can speed up your Dial-Up Networking (DUN) TCP/IP connection time in Windows 9X/Me, when you dial in to your ISP (Internet Service Provider) to log on to the Internet. To do so, first locate your "Dial-Up Networking" icon in Explorer, found by default in the C:\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories\Dial-Up Networking folder.
Right-click on your connection icon (the name varies, depending on your ISP) and select Properties. Select the "Server Types" tab. On the "Advanced Options" screen, check ONLY the "Enable software compression" box. On the "Allowed network protocols" screen, check ONLY the "TCP/IP" box. Click the "TCP/IP Settings" button. Check the "Server assigned IP address" and the "Specify name server addresses" boxes.
Type in your own ISP's server assigned address numbers in the "Primary DNS" and "Secondary DNS" boxes. In the "Primary WINS" and "Secondary WINS" boxes, type only zeroes. Check the "Use IP header compression" and the "Use default gateway on remote network" boxes. Click OK until all dialog boxes are closed, to save all your settings.

Optimizing Your Modem Speed
Click the Start-Run menu, type Sysedit, and then click OK. Open WIN.INI file and go to the [Port] section. Edit the port mode value to:
COMx:=921600,n,8,1,p
x = the modem port number
921600 = maximum speed (bps)
n = non-parity
8 = 8 data bits
1 = 1 stop bit
p = hardware flow control
COMx:=921600,n,8,1,p
x = the modem port number
921600 = maximum speed (bps)
n = non-parity
8 = 8 data bits
1 = 1 stop bit
p = hardware flow control
No more Enter key
If you are using Internet Explorer 5.0, you can simply paste or type a URL in the address bar and then click on "Go" button. You don't need to press the Enter key anymore.
