You can connect to Internet Explorer in two ways: by connecting the Ikôn directly to the In-
ternet or by connecting through your PC while the Ikôn is attached via ActiveSync (see
“ActiveSync®” on page85).
5.18.1 Browsing Web Sites
There is little difference between the standard Internet Explorer found on your PC and that
found on your Ikôn, sometimes referred to as Pocket Internet Explorer. You can enter URLs,
set a ‘home page’, turn images on and off, e-mail links to friends, and so on.
To go to a web site:
• Connect your Ikôn to the Internet. (If you’re not certain how to do this, tap on
Start>Internet Explorer to display a blank window. Next, tap on Start>H elp and
follow the steps listed.)
• Tap on Start>Programs>Internet Explorer to open Internet Explorer.
If Internet Explorer is listed in the Start menu rather in the Program screen, tap
on Start>Internet Explorer.
• Tap on the address bar – the field near the top of the screen where URLs are entered – to
highlight the current URL.
• Type a new URL in the address bar.
Tapping on the softkeys in the softkey bar at the bottom of the screen display Internet Ex-
plorer commands like those you find on your PC.
