The Web Activity

When you select the Web Activity, the Internet folders for the current User are displayed in the User Folder Tree View, shown in area (2). You can create and manage bookmarks, downloaded files and search engine queries in the folders provided, and you can create your own folders using the pop-up menu for the User Folder Tree View, shown in area (2), or by using the Media Folders Window. (See Common Features|Media Folders Window for more reading on folders).

If you select a Bookmarks folder in the User Folder Tree View, the software will filter for only those bookmarks created in the selected folder. You can use the Bookmark folders to organize your bookmarks into different categories.

Selecting the Web Activity, displays the integrated Web Browser in the activity Panel, along with the web Browser Toolbars, and Web Menu actions in the Menu bar.

When you create a new user, the software automatically creates a number of popular search engine queries for the new user. You can also add your own search engine queries to the Web search folders.
