Under Windows Vista, and for reasons of safety, functionality telnet (Final NETwork) is not activated by defect. For recall, telnet is a protocol of the client/server type making it possible to connect itself on a distant machine as a user.

Whereas Firefox integrates navigation by tabs since strong a long time, it is only since the last grinding of IE7 that the faithful admirers of Microsoft can benefit from such functionality. But to be honest as much, since one uses a great number of tabs, it becomes rather difficult to juggle between all these tabs and to find that which interests us. And it is precisely what the functionality “QuickTabs” accessible via the combination from Ctrl+Q keys proposes to do (or on the button located on the right of the buttons of management of the favorites). You will post a mosaic then containing a miniature of all the active tabs. You will be able to thus choose that which interests you in a more convivial way.

With this intention, unroll the drop-down menu of the small magnifying glass located at the end in top on the left of the navigator and select the option “to modify the parameters of research per defect”. If the engine that you wish to use does not appear in the list, you can add other engines, simply while clicking on “still Seeking search engines… ”, in order to post a new window containing of other search engines.

Copy the URL of the page of the results in zone URL of the window “Create yours” (is needed that the word TEST appears in the URL), then indicate the name of the search engine as illustrated on the image below. However, it is possible to be a little further limiting research to an Internet site in particular. Let us take for example our case, namely our Internet site.
