Keyboard shortcut tips for Internet Explorer 9

TechNet magazine recently ran a quick tips article on the keyboard shortcuts for IE 9. There are many useful shortcuts presented in the article, and I especially like Ctrl+J for the Download Manager, Alt+Home to go to your home page, and Ctrl+T to open a new tab.

However, the shortcut key Ctrl+L used for quickly going to the browser's address bar, requires some commentary. Although the keyboard shortcut duly works, I find another shortcut, Alt+D, a better choice. If you have Windows 7, the same Alt+D works there to go to the address bar, just like in the web browser. However, Ctrl+L does not work with Windows 7, and so I find the one I use easier to remember.
