Here's what you do when you want to just snag a picture fast

drag & drop it to the desktop . Just left-click the picture, keep your mouse button down, then plop it onto your desktop. So easy. Of course, if your browser is maximized and you can't see your desktop this isn't going to work.

Use the End key. Hit it once and you'll be whisked away to the bottom of any Web page, any document, any file, etc. Also, if you're working with some shorter text, the End key sometimes takes you the end of a line, which is also helpful and a much faster way of doing things.

Web browsers often save files you download in to their default directories without prompting you for information

If this happens to you, or if you just forget where you downloaded a particular file to, try using "Find Files or Folders..." option from your "Start Menu." Rather than looking for a name, look for any file that was saved ("Date Modified" tab) within the amount of time it took you to complete the download.

Web Form

When you're filling out a form that asks for your name, address, etc., you can use the Tab key to go from one line to the next. For example, if you're done filling in your name, hit the Tab key and your mouse cursor will automatically go down to the next line, which is probably where your address goes. You can do that throughout the whole form.
