Using the Internet
The Internet is a network of computer systems located all around
the world. To access it, you must use an Internet Service Provider
(ISP), which provides access to the Internet through a telephone
line. You may be able to access the Internet over your company's
network.
You navigate your way around the Internet using a browser.
Windows 2000 Professional comes with a browser, but your
organization may prefer to use a different browser.
For more information on using the Internet, click the Connect to
the Internet icon, then click the Tutorial button.
For more information about your company's Internet services, see
your network administrator.
Powering down the computer
When you power down the computer, you have three options to
choose from: Shut down, Standby, and Hibernation. Each method
has its advantages.
TECHNICAL NOTE: Before using any of these methods to
power down your computer, save your files and make sure
the disk activity lights are off.
If you change your mind and decide to continue working
after all, wait a few seconds before turning the computer on
again.
