Open A Site In A New Microsoft Internet Explorer Window

We were recently asked if there is an easy way to open a link in a new window. There is -- just hold down Shift while you click on the link. This will open the link in a new (small) window. If you'd prefer not to deal with the smaller window, you can press Ctrl + N to open a new window and then click the link.

Change folder background**********

Brandon from New Washington, Indiana wants to change the color of the background in his folders. I get tired of the white background, too.

Just open the folder you want to customize. Right-click and select "Customize this Folder." Check the box next to Change Background color. It also asks if you want to change the icon text. Do it.

That's about it.
