4.1 Hacks #33-41
All of
us live on the Web these days, and the demarcation between the
operating system and the Web has gotten fuzzier with each iteration
of Windows. XP has even more web-based tools built into it than its
predecessors. While Internet Explorer 6 betters all
previous versions of the browser, it could still use some help. It
doesn't give you much help when you want to protect
your privacy or fight against annoyances like pop-up ads, for
example. And its searching capabilities and offline display of web
pages leaves much to be desired. In this chapter, you'll find hacks to fix all that
and more, including a great grab-bag of Registry hacks for Internet
Explorer, a way to speed up file downloads, shortcuts for starting
and running Internet Explorer, and more. |
