If you use Internet Explorer to access the internet you can customise it to make it more convenient for you to use.
Use the following steps to customise you Internet Explorer Settings:
Step 1
Begin by launching Internet Explorer from the Start menu.
Step 2
In the window that appears on your screen you can begin to customise the various options as follows:
Text size: To customise the size of text go to View which is located on the top tool bar. As you click on this a drop down menu will appear. Scan down the menu and select the option Text Size. When you select this another submenu will appear with a list of text sizes from largest to smallest. Choose the text size that you want.
Personalising the Internet Explorer Bar: From the toolbar at the top click on View Explorer Bar. A drop down menu will appear. Select an item from the list that you would like to add to the Explorer Bar area. The Explorer Bar area is located on the left side of the screen.
Adding Toolbars: From the top IE toolbar click on View and from the drop down menu list choose the option Toolbars. When you click on the Toolbar option a submenu will appear with a list of the different types of toolbars that you can use with your IE browser. You can choose more than one. It is also possible to add external toolbars that are created by other companies. For example, there are toolbars available from Google, Yahoo and various other social media sites that you can use. To get these extra toolbars you can go to each individual website and download the toolbars from the site.
Handy tip: If you want to find sites that you have visited recently you can view these from a setting called History. You can access this feature from the IE toolbar as well. However a faster way of doing this is by pressing on the arrow at the side of the back button. This will make a list appear of the websites that you have visited recently. Then, it is just a matter of selecting the website you want and clicking on the link to visit it again.
