You can go forwards and backwards with alt + left or right arrows.

Did you just read a IE for Dummies book or something? j/k
I love keyboard shortcuts, they're extremely helpful when you're on a laptop.

hehe I have a button on my keyboard just for the "BACK" feature
by far my favorite ie trick is typing the company name in the address bar hitting control-enter to add the http:// and the .com. use it ALL the time.

i do everything using keyboard... (or at least try to)
i like the windows key shortcuts
window D
window M
window shift M
window E
window F
on macs:
delete - back
shift delete - forward
apple left - back
apple right - forward
apple h - hide
apple m - minimize
apple q - quit
apple w - close window
you can type in an address without the www or .com and it will automatically add it without any special key strokes. You can also type page titles and it will go there from you favorites quick links or history
hey, that one's cool.Originally posted by cheapbast@rd

Being as I am generally surfing 90% of my work day, Alt-Tab is by far my favorite shortcut.. bosses get suspicious if you keep moving your mouse EVERYTIME they walk buy.. But, since they can't see my hands, I can just alt-tab and they are clueless to what I'm doing.. they just think I'm typing or something.
YAY for alt-tab!!11
If you have a wheelmouse, you can zoom in and out of text by holding ctrl down and scrolling with the wheel.

it's the view->text size.
up gets bigger and down gets smaller.
so, the pr0n pictures don't get bigger if u do this
Something new I learned! So, I tried it and I'm like...hey, this isn't working! My computer just must be slow though because it worked after that. This will be helpful on those websites where they decide to use size 4 font because it's "artistic".Originally posted by gwilks98

ohh how bout these. i just remembered them:
shift+click(on link) = opens link in new window
ctrl+click (on explorer windows. example: while browsing through "my documents" folder) = opens folder in new window
alt+space+n = minimize window
alt+space+x = maximize window
f4 (in browser) = takes ur cursor(is it the cursor? the line that blinks where u're typing) up to the address toolbar. ready for u to type away.
ctrl+alt+del + ctrl+alt+del when comp freezes while playing games on windows ME= solves your problem for at least 20 minutes
Oh...I know another one for the macOriginally posted by ribitch

You can also move back and forth in your history by pressing shift and scrolling with the wheel. I just found out by hitting it instead of ctrl.Originally posted by gwilks98

i just realized that ctrl+tab does the same thing without bringing the your whole "history list" (?) down.Originally posted by DankNstickY
