Navigating the IE5 Window

The Internet Explorer Window, like all Microsoft windows, contains a title bar, minimize button, maximize/restore button, close button, menu bar, several toolbars, and a status bar as shown in Figure 17.2.

Figure 17.2 Your Start page displays when you are connected to the Internet.

You operate the Internet Explorer window and its menus as you would any other Windows program. For example, to minimize the window, click the Minimize button. To open a menu, click on it. If you need a refresher on Windows basics, see Lesson 2, "Working with a Window," and Lesson 3, "Using Menus."
