    Omg guys,
    please help me!

    I know I am in the wrong section,
    but it was already so difficult to even get here and to create a topic.
    Yesterday,
    I dropped my mouse (oke, really hard) and I can't click anymore (there is a red light though).

    I don't ask for solution (oke, a temporary solution :))

    I need some shortcuts, because I am controling this pc with only my keyboard wich is pretty lame you know --".

    It was awefull to get to this forum :p (It took me 30 minutes).
    I know alt F4, ctrl alt delete, the ctrl tab for switching tabs in the browser, the alt tab for switching in maps.

    Do you guys have mroe shortcuts? :s

    like, how to close a tab in your browser or something like that? :p

    Thanks in advance!

    greetz,
    a man without a computermouse

    Ctrl+Shift+T = Open previously closed tab.
    Ctrl+Shift+Del = delete cookies and shit.
    Ctrl+W = Close tab.

    These are for firefox, but may work in other browsers.

    Goodness. Do you have spare mice? You could use a cheap 1$ mouse, better then using the keyboard.

    Or just kill a street mouse.

    It's fine to have two accounts from the same IP address, as long as they're not owned by the same individual.

    If I had a choice between mouse only and keyboard only, I'd choose keyboard only.

    If I want to quickly open an application, I use Windows 7 so I just hit the Windows key and type in the first several letters of the application. XP users can just hit Win+R and type the name of the application.

    To move around windows in Windows 7, use Win+arrow keys. It comes in handy sometimes.

    Here are the browser shortcuts that I use the most.
    Ctrl+T - opens new tab
    Ctrl+Tab - switches to next tab
    Ctrl+Shift+Tab - switches to last tab
    Ctrl+W - closes tab
    Ctrl+L - Highlights the address bar
    Alt+Left - Back
    Alt+Right - Forward

    Also if you don't have a mouse, try using MouseKeys. It allows you to control the mouse cursor using the numpad. Enable it with Alt+Shift+Num Lock. A diagram of the controls from Wikipedia are below.

    Well,
    I'm using a trial version of Key Mouse Genie and it works, but it's slower then a normal mouse.
    But it is perfect as a temporary thing.

    Thanks for your help.

    CTRL + V = Paste
    CTRL + X = Cut
    CTRL + C = Copy

    Too bad nobody mentioned them.

    already knew most of the shortcuts (including those basics ;D)

    ow and by the way,
    I'm really a girl though you guys won't believe it *sigh*

    but I got the account after the downloads (NDS) were cancelled..
