We always need more time and want to do everything faster. To find something fast on the internet is just one way to save time.
Here are a few fast ways to make sure you get the most out of your browser’s functionality.
1. Use a fast browser
Fairly obvious isn’t it? In a previous article we looked at the various browsers and their performance. By now you know that all browsers are faster than others and Google Chrome is currently winning the race when it comes to speed.
2. Disable Flash
Flash websites are all over the web and extremely popular. Although they look impressive, they also slow down your browsing experience considerably. Rather turn off Flash by default and reactivate it when you really want to see the Flash animations. Some browsers require an add-on to block Flash. For Chrome, you need the extension Flashblock. There’s also a Flashblock extension for Firefox. Internet Explorer has a built-in tool you can access by clicking Tools | Manage Add-ons.
3. Get rid of all those toolbars
More toolbars, slower speed. As simple as that. And do you really need all those toolbars? Some toolbars take up computer memory while others are eating away on your bandwidth and sending and receiving data in the background. (and you thought they were just sitting there doing nothing!)
4. Use tabs, not windows
Too many tabs can cause problems, but they’re very handy when it comes to browsing efficiency. How do tabs speed up your experience? The first is all about organization. With multiple tabs in a single window, it becomes quite a bit faster to locate the page you need to work on. You don’t have to maximize a window, discover that it’s not the right one, minimize it, maximize a new window… until you find the correct one. A single window open with multiple tabs is far easier to search. This is not the only way tabs can help you. Browsers like Chrome treat each tab as an individual process (instead of a child process of a parent). So when a Web site causes a tab to crash, you can close that one tab and not lose all the other tabs. This behavior is not a standard at the moment, so you’ll need to switch over to the Chrome browser to take advantage of it.

Ons is altyd op soek na meer tyd en wil alles vinniger doen. Om vinniger iets op die internet op te spoor is een opsie.
Hier is `n paar slim idees om seker te maak jy kry die beste spoed moontlik uit jou webblaaier se funksionaliteit.
1. Gebruik `n vinnige webblaaier
Redelik voor die hand liggend is dit nie? In ons vorige artikel oor die verskeie webblaaiers het ons vinnig gekyk na spoed en hoe blaaiers vergelyk. Julle weet dus al teen die tyd dat sommiges vinniger as ander is. Google Chrome is tans voor as dit by spoed kom.
2. Deaktiveer Flash
Daar is geweldig baie Flash webwerwe op die internet en alhoewel dit redelik indrukwekkend lyk, maak dit jou vermoeë om vinnig te blaai aansienlik moeiliker.
As spoed vir jou belangrik is, sit eerder Flash af onder jou webblaaier verstellings en aktiveer dit as jy regtig die Flash animasie wil sien. Met sommige blaaiers het jy addisionele applikasies nodig soos Flashblock, maar Internet Explorer het `n ingeboude opsie onder “Tools” hiervoor.
3. Raak ontslae van jou nutsbalke (“toolbars”)
Hoe meer nutsbalke jy versamel in jou webblaaier, hoe stadig gaan jou internet wees. So eenvoudig soos dit. En het jy regtig alles nodig? Sommiges gebruik geheue terwyl ander stilweg jou bandwydte opvreet deur data te stuur en ontvang in die agtergrond. (en jy het gedink hulle sit net daar en niks doen nie.)
5. Gebruik oortjies (“tabs”) in plaas van nuwe vensters
Te veel oortjies kan verwarrend raak, maar hulle is steeds die beste opsie om jou webblaaier so doeltreffend moontlik te maak. So hoe help dit? Met meer as een oortjie in een venster, is dit baie vinniger en makliker om die bladsy waaraan jy wil werk, te sien. Jy hoef nie `n ander venster groter te maak, besef dit die verkeerde een, `n ander een oop te maak en voort te sukkel nie.
Webblaaiers soos Chrome hanteer ook elke oortjie soos `n aparte proses. So wanneer `n webwerf een oortjie laat toegaan, verloor jy net daardie een webwerf, nie almal waaraan jy gewerk het nie.

Since this morning (Thursday 17 May) a number of e-mails have been delivered into University accounts with a subject line of “USPS Shipment Info for 2351 3200 0122 9268 0611 3688”. The mail contains a cleverly disguised executable disguised as a web page or a document that when clicked or opened (the attachment) will modify the security settings in your Internet Explorer browser settings to allow criminals to gain access or control to your computer. If you get any mail with these sort of characteristics (often disguised as a USPS, UPS or international postal or courier services notification) please delete or quarantine the file.

The second you connect to the internet you put yourself at risk. Scary thought, but we tend to forget just how vulnerable we are and the easy targets we become when we’re not careful about our safety on the internet.
