Step 2: Configuring Your Web
Browser

The software that you use to make an Internet connection must be

set for a network connection, not a dial-up connection.
This section includes instructions for recent versions of two

popular Web browsers: Internet Explorer Version 5.0 (or later) and
Netscape Navigator Version 7.2. Netscape Navigator instructions

are on page 11, and Internet Explorer instructions are below.

Tip:
If you are using an earlier version of one of these browsers, the

configuration may be slightly different from below. In those

cases—or if you are using another browser altogether—configure

the browser to use a network connection (this might be called a

“Local Area Network” or “broadband” connection).

Configuring Internet Explorer

The following instructions are for Internet Explorer Version 5.0 or

later. (If you do not have this version, you can get a free upgrade

from Microsoft Corp. If you are not sure what version you have,

open Internet Explorer and from the Help menu, choose About

Internet Explorer. The version number is directly below the

Microsoft Internet Explorer logo. You can ignore all the numbers

after the period following the first digit.)

On the desktop, right-click the Internet Explorer icon, and
select Properties.

Tip:
If you cannot access Internet Explorer in this way, open your
computer’s Control Panel (click the Start button and then,

depending on your computer, either click Control Panel, or

click Settings and then Control Panel). In the Control Panel,

double-click the Internet Options icon. If this icon does not

appear, double-click the Network and Internet Options icon
and then double-click the Internet Options icon.
