Use Ctrl + Enter to complete urlIn Internet Explorer 6 & 7, you can save a couple steps when typing in a web site address into the address bar. Example if you are going to www.rverscomputerhelp.com, you can just type in rverscomputerhelp, then hold down the Ctrl key and press Enter. Internet Explorer will add the www. and the .com. Now this will not work if that feature has been turned off, I bet some of you will find it is off and didn't know it.
Paint.netIf you have been looking for a good photo editor, Paint.net is the answer. It is free, very powerful, it does a lot that the pay for editors do, but is free. Adobe Photoshop is a very expensive program, I have it and use it often when building web sites. However lately I have been using the free Paint.net program, because I feel it responds quicker and in many cases is easier to use. Also the more expensive editors have features that I will never use. Paint.net was created to be a replacement for the Paint program that comes with Microsoft Windows, but was never used. You can get it here, www.getpaint.net/index.html
