Heres 2 interesting shortcuts I've just come across using the mouse wheel in internet explorer.

To use you mouse to navigate back and fourth between pages:

Hold down the Shift button on your keyboard
Scroll the wheel on your mouse up to navigate forward one page
Scroll the wheen on your mouse down to navigate back one page


To change the text size using your wheel mouse:

Hold down the CTRL button on your keyboard
Scroll the wheel on your mouse up to decrease size of text
Scroll the wheel on your mouse down to increase the size of text

i was helping a friend who went online for the first time.
She has no wheel mouse... odd feeling..
