user’s guide
Once you are connected to the Internet, your browser displays the home Web
page. You can go to a different Web site by entering its address (such as
http://www.hp.com) in the address box in the Web browser and pressing Enter
on your keyboard. Or, you can use the browser Search tool to search for
references to a specific word or phrase on the Web.
searching the internet
Most browser programs include a search feature. You may need to click a button
or select from a menu to display the search feature, depending on the type of
browser program. 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 use of the Internet Explorer Search. (If
your 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

There are also Web sites specifically created for searching the Internet. These are
called search engines.
