<h4 class="dechead">On One Hand: Accelerators Are a Functional Tool
Internet Explorer 8 includes a new tool known as "accelerators." Accelerators search for more information on a topic that appears on a Web page. This enables a computer user to find more information quickly without cutting and pasting, or typing the search terms.
On the Other: Not All Accelerators Are Made By Microsoft
There are accelerators for Internet Explorer 8 that are made by companies other than Microsoft. Having different companies integrating tools with a Microsoft product means it is difficult to know for sure whether all IE8 accelerators will function as intended.
Bottom Line
Accelerators are a functional and helpful feature, making it easier for users to search for more information on a topic. There is no guarantee that all accelerators will function as a computer user may expect.
