    Backspace goes backwards.

    I don't know any websites, but I would imagine if you googled 'microsoft windows keyboard shortcuts' you'd get nice results.

    regarding browsers:

    ALT+left arrow also goes backward
    ALT+right arrow for forward

    Here's some shortcuts I cut and pasted into a Notepad file. You might want to do the same for handy reference:

    Ctrl+N - This opens a new browser window.
    Alt-F4 closes the window.

    The "boss" button:

    Windows key + M = minimizes all windows

    Shift + Windows+ M + restores all windows


    Windows+Pause/Break opens System Properties.

    Ctrl-Shift-Esc gets you the taskmanager.

    windars key+D
    takes you to desktop


    Windows Key + L = locks your computer (Been using that a lot lately

    when Folding)


    How about Win+E for Windows Explorer.

    Alt+Print Scr caps relavent window.

    Shift+Delete for permanent file removal(no recycle bin)


    Actually, I kind like the DIY keyboard short cuts:
    Right click on any desktop or start menu shortcut
    Click Properties>shortcut tab
    In the shortcut key window, type a single letter
    That becomes your CTRL + ATL + (letter) shortcut

    SPECIAL RULES:
    You cannot use the
    Spacebar,Backspace,Delete,ESC,Print Screen, or Tab keys.

    You can customize a little, using two out of three of the following

    keys, followed by another key.
    Ctrl,Shift, Alt


    Ctrl + Enter = adds WWW. and, .COM on web URL's

    Just fyi, when you are assigning keys to be shortcut keys, you can also use the numberpad keys as single key shortcuts. IOW the numpad keys don't have to use a CTRL, Shift, ALT combo.
