speed up firefox

found this tryed it and yeh seems to work quite well.

"This worked great for me.

Here's something for broadband people that will really speed Firefox up:

1. Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:

network.http.pipelining
network.http.proxy.pipelining
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests

Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading.

2. Alter the entries as follows:

Set "network.http.pipelining" to "true" from False

Set "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true" from False

Set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once. From 4

3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set its value to "0". This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives.

If you're using a broadband connection you'll load pages MUCH faster now!"

give it a try if ya dont think it works then ya can always undo it, and if ya still usin IE then yer a sad git _K <!-- s:wink: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt="" title="Wink" /><!-- s:wink: -->

Thats firetune for ya lads. It works wonders on almost any machine running broadband and firefox.

Oh, and btw.

IE sux big, hairy elephant ballz.

just 1 thing with Firefox though, if you goto
tools/options/privacy and click on view saved passwords
theres all the passwords for everyone to see so its probably a good idea to stick in a master password <!-- s:wink: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt="" title="Wink" /><!-- s:wink: -->
