Most browsers give you the ability to view Web pages in full screen mode, hiding all elements other than the main browser window itself. This includes stifling the display of tabs, toolbars, bookmarks, and status bars. Full screen mode can be toggled on and off very easily, and the following tutorials step you through the process in some of the top browsers in Windows.
Full Screen Mode in IE8
Full Screen Mode in Firefox 3.5
Full Screen Mode in Google Chrome

By default, the Google Chrome browser will save certain information that you enter into website forms such as your name and address. This Form Autofill feature makes things easier the next time you are prompted to enter the same info in that form or in similar forms on other sites. Although it offers an element of convenience, there is also an obvious privacy issue here. If other people use your browser or you simply do not feel comfortable having your form information stored, the Form Autofill feature can be disabled in just a few easy steps.
