To display a connect icon (two connected computers) in the taskbar icon whenever you
are connected, click Start, Control Panel, Network and Internet Connections, Network
Connections. Then right-click the connection, select Properties, and select the icon
option.
You are now ready to explore the Internet. To go to a specific web site, enter the address
(for example, www.hp.com) in the browser's Address field. To search for information on
the Web, you can use the browser's Search tool and enter the word or phrase you are
looking for.
To use AOL as your ISP
When you use AOL as your Internet Service Provider, you can access the Internet only
with AOL's own software; you can't use a standard browser like Internet Explorer. As a
result:
• You cannot view web sites by clicking on links (such as those in the electronic
Reference Guide that link to the HP notebook web site).
• You cannot go to a web site by entering the address in Windows Explorer.
If you try to access the Internet without using the AOL software, the Internet Connection
wizard automatically launches, asking you to sign up for an ISP. In that case, cancel the
wizard and launch AOL.
For additional ISP information, please refer to the Microsoft Operating Manual included
in your box or Windows Help.

To disconnect from the Internet

You remain connected to the Internet until you shut down the computer, disconnect the
phone line from the computer, or give a command to hang up the connection.
• To disconnect from AOL, use the Sign Off menu.
• To disconnect from other ISPs, double-click the connect icon (two connected
computers next to the clock) on the taskbar, and click Disconnect. (You can enable
this icon as described in "To connect to the Internet," above.)
OR
Click Start, Control Panel, Network and Internet Connections, Network Connections,
then right-click the connection and select Disconnect.
