week 3: WEB BROWSER~



                             Web browser is a software application that enables a user to display and interact with text, images, and other information typically located on a web page at a website on the World Wide Web or a local area network.




For examples: 


- Microsoft Internet Explorer 
- Mozilla Firefox, 
- Apple Safari 
- Netscape 
- Opera 













METASEARCH ENGINE


  • A metasearch engine is a search tool that sends user requests to several other search engines and/or databases and aggregates the results into a single list or displays them according to their source. Metasearch engines operate on the premise that the Web is too large for any one search engine to index it all and that more comprehensive search results can be obtained by combining the results from several search engines. This also may save the user from having to use multiple search engines separately.




  • In the context of the World Wide Web, a bookmark is a locally stored Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). All modern web browsers include bookmark features. Bookmarks are called favorites or Internet shortcuts in Internet Explorer. Bookmarks are normally accessed through a menu in the user's web browser, and folders are commonly used for organization. In addition to bookmarking methods within most browsers, many external applications offer bookmark management.






  






CLEAR HISTORY
  • Clear History is free and powerfull windows desktop application to clean search history from your computer. It is full featured program that greatly surpasses most commercial programs out there.









    CLEAR CACHE (video)
  • Cache files are nothing but regular files from web pages you visited, pictures, videos etc. Those files are used by browser instead of downloading again so your pages load faster. But, cache files are an evidence of where you have been and what you were doing on internet. So if you don't want your internet habits to be discovered you should clear cache on regular basis. To clear cache in your web browser is very straightforward - follow the instructions bellow. 

To clear cache from your computer do the following:
     In Firefox:
1) Go to the Tools menu
2) Select Clear Private Data
3) Make sure Cache is checked. Uncheck others as you wish.
4) Click on Clear Private Data Now and your cache is cleared.




CLEAR URL HISTORY
  •    If you don't clear URL history files, your web browser automatically keeps a detailed record of all web sites you've visited usually for more than forty days. The history feature enables you to have a more exact internet surfing experience. However if you want to eliminate only specific private searches from your URL history because there are other users of your PC who would like their URLs logged, you can selectively clear URL history files.










MULTITASKING


  • The ability to execute more than one task at the same time, a task being a program.
In multitasking, only one CPU is involved, but it switches from one program to another so quickly that it gives the appearance of executing all of the programs at the same time.




PLUG IN
  • In computing, a plug-in (or plugin) is a set of software components that adds specific abilities to a larger software application. If supported, plug-ins enable customizing the functionality of an application. For example, plug-ins are commonly used in web browsers to play video, scan for viruses, and display new file types. Well-known plug-ins examples include Adobe Flash Player, QuickTime, and Microsoft Silverlight.
