I don't know if these have been mentioned (didn't read all 28 pages of this thread ) so here are a few keyboard shortcuts for IE/Firefox

F5 = refresh page (already posted) but holding CTRL while hitting F5 forces all data to be resent from the server.

Typing just the name of a URL and hitting CTRL+ENTER fills in www. and .com at the beginning and end. For example: typing ozzu then hitting CTRL+ENTER goes to http://www.ozzu.com. In Firefox, SHIFT+ENTER fills in www. and .net.

CTRL+T opens a new tab in IE 7.0 and Firefox. CTRL+W closes the current tab.

CTRL+W is standard in Windows for MDI (Multiple Document Interface) programs (programs that have more than one document open at the same time). Hitting it closes the current document but leaves the program open.

Other IE 7.0/Firefox tips - again, I don't know if these have been mentioned yet:

1. CTRL+<number> where number is between 1 and 8 goes to that tab. If you have 5 tabs open, CTRL+4 goes to the fourth tab.

2. CTRL+9 goes to the last open tab.

3. If you have your Links toolbar showing, you can hold the CTRL key while clicking a link button. This automatically opens a new tab and goes to the website specified by the link button.

The links toolbar consists of all bookmarks saved in the Links folder under favorites. If you have bookmarks saved in the Links folder but can't see the Links toolbar, right click an empty space by the menu bar and make sure the Links item is checked. Then you will see the Links toolbar.

To create a toolbar of favorite websites, save websites to the Links folder under favorites. Every site in the Links folder can be viewed on the Links toolbar. Make sure the links toolbar is enabled by right clicking an empty space by the menu bar/toolbars in Internet explorer. If Links is not checked, click it to check (enable) it.

You will see the word "Links" in the toolbar area. Drag it to an area you can see well (I like it on the same row as the menu bar just to the right of "help").

If you are using Internet Explorer 7.0, try this shortcut. To quickly go to a site in your Links list, hold the CTRL key down and click on the desired link. A new tab will automatically open and the site you clicked will be opened in the new tab.

i don't know if this shortcur has been included but here it goes anyway

instead of typing in your url bar:

http://www.ozzu.com

just type ozzu and press ctrl-enter

that will create the www and the com parts of the url
if you wanna go to a website with the net domain then press

ctrl-shift
