How do I search the Internet?
The browser program you use includes a Search
feature. You may need to click a button or select
the feature from a menu to display it, depending
on the type of browser program it is.
Type a question or a word that describes the
information you want to find into the search box,
and then press Enter.
The Windows Search feature includes direct
access to the Internet Explorer Search. (If the
ISP provides the browser, you may not be able
to use Internet Explorer to search the Internet.)
To begin a search:
1 Click Start on the taskbar.
2 Click Search.
3 Click Search the Internet. (You may have
to scroll down in the list to see this option.)
4 Type a word or question into the Search box.
5 Click Search.
The PC connects to the Internet (if needed),
performs the search, and displays the results.
Click a link in the results list to display the
Web page.
There are also Web sites specifically created for
searching the Internet. These are called search
engines. Search engines use a number of ways
to find information.
Setting Up the Modem
The modem is used for connecting to an ISP
that provides telephone dial-up connection to
the Internet. There are other ways to connect to
the ISP that do not use the telephone modem,
such as a LAN (local area network) or DSL
(Digital Subscriber Line). See “Setting Up the
Network Interface Adapter” on page 47 if you
are connecting through a LAN. Check with your
ISP for specifics on your connection.
Note:
Your PC may not come with a modem.
