Overview
Our
sites do not demand much more or less than other sites. But for an
optimal performance you should at best check your settings.

Settings
In
order to effectively log on your Internet Explorer must be set to
accept cookies. To enable cookies:
-
GO
to the very top of Internet Explorer screen that looks like
this:
-
SELECT
Tools and a drop-down menu appears looking like this:
-
SELECT
Internet Options ... from the Tools drop-down menu,
your screen will now display the Internet Options window, that
looks like this:
-
SELECT
the Privacy tab and your screen should look like this:
-
You
then must SELECT the Advanced button, and the
Advanced Privacy Settings screen will appear, it look like
this:
For First-party you can set it to "Accept" if you
think it is annoying (after a while of using this setting)
_______________________________
Cache
Settings
The
"cache" keeps copies of frequently visited web pages on
your hard drive. This reduces the amount of time it takes to
display a page you have visited in the past. Attention: people who
surf with a slow connection (like less then 128 mpbs, such as a
56k modem) should increase their cache size. Why? If you
download a comic, like 5 MB, it may get interrupted when only
finished for 40% or so. If this happens, this means packages are
getting lost on the internet. So it is best to right-click the
file and choose SAVE AS. Then you download it. If the download
gets aborted, you may retry without loss. If your cache
settings are high enough (at least 20 Mb) internet explorer will
RESUME the download! You will notice that if you restart the
download of the same file again, it will start where it stopped!
So you do not need Download Managers (third party software) to
have downloads 'resume'.
To
properly set the Cache for Internet Explorer, follow these
directions:
-
GO
to the very top of Internet Explorer screen that looks like
this:
-
SELECT
Tools and a drop-down menu appears looking like this:
-
SELECT
Internet Options ... from the Tools drop-down menu,
your screen will now display the Internet Options window, that
looks like this:
Make sure that the General tab is selected (there are
several tabs at the top of the Internet Options window,
General, Security, Privacy, etc.) just make sure that General
is selected. In the example above, General is selected.
In the middle of the Internet Options is an area called Temporary
Internet Files that looks like this:
-
SELECT
Settings ... from the Temporary Internet Files
area and your screen will look like this:
Notice at the top of the Settings window it says Check
for newer versions of stored pages: and in this case the
first "button" (Every visit to the page) is
checked, which is not the most optimal setting. If that is
your setting, then you better change it to "Automatically".
Also notice the "Amount of disk space to use".
Please be sure it is more than 30 MB. If it is set to more
than 100 Mb, please reduce it, as it will rapidly slowdown
your computer!
