Here are a few keyboard shortcuts that can speed up your web browsing with Internet Explorer.  I do not imagine you will need them all nor will be able to remember them all at first.  The best method is to open your Internet Explorer and go through each of the shortcuts.  The ones you like, write them down (or print them) and put them next to your keyboard.  Work on one at a time forcing your to use them and before long you will have the list of shortcuts you like memorized.
