All you firefox users, heres a tweak thats simple to do and will definitely
make your browser load faster...



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

2. Alter the entries as follows:

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

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

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 recieves.
 
thanks for the info...I just made the changes and am eager to see how it works. :D

i actually have 4 browsers including firefox installed, nothing IME works as well as netscape, firefox is very safe and fast but doesn't allow everything - too much it doesn't do, netscape does nearly everything and has java, flash, and everything you need included so you don't have to do any downloading nonsense - even has aim (though i don't use the netscape version), rarely i would have to use IE because some sites need it, of course i only use netscape 7.2 because newer ones look disgusting, netscape takes a lot more resources but if you have a good computer that's not an issue

and oh yeah, firefox never works with my mouse forward and back buttons, i'm a big fan of one handed surfing :D
