STOP is a
handy button if a page is taking too long to load.
I used to use STOP a lot more frequently
than I do now. With slow connections, a page full
of graphics can take forever to load. Sometimes,
the information that you need is already on the
screen and you can stop the browser from loading
the rest of the page. Higher modem speeds, improved
software, and better web page design have made it
relatively unnecessary to use the STOP button.
Still, it’s nice to know that you can apply the
brakes when a web page gets out of control.
