Surfing the World Wide Web

This chapter explains the web and shows you how to use the desktop version of Internet Explorer to navigate from site to site. This version of Internet Explorer is much more powerful and useful than the Windows 8 version described briefly in Chapter 4. In this chapter you learn how to navigate sites, work with tabs, change your home page, save your favorite sites, and search for information.
