Create A Favorite in Microsoft Internet Explorer
Favorites Toolbar

In order to get the most out of this tutorial, you're going to want to be looking at a copy of Microsoft Internet Explorer. To get your free copy of Microsoft Internet Explorer, go to the offical Microsoft Internet Explorer site.

Internet Explorer is the most popular browser out there today, and while it has its problems and critics, Internet Explorer still has a lot of useful features that make web search more enjoyable. One of these features is the ability to save websites for later reference, otherwise known as bookmarks, or favorites.

Step 1 - Create A Favorite in Internet Explorer

  1. Find a site you enjoy and would like to come back to later. This is the fun part! If you're having trouble, check out my list of Most Popular Websites.
  2. Click on the Favorites icon in the toolbar. There are two to choose from (see the next step for more explanation.)
