Stop

 

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.
