Speed Up Firefox

[tacoX]

This is a really great way to speed up firefox a bit, it worked for me. Check this thread:

Yea, my Internet is going a little faster. It was going pretty slow before <_<

It sped up my browser very slightly. I&#39;d say its worth it, but still not that much faster.

My mom refuses to let me get Firefox. She&#39;s like "I don&#39;t know anything about it and it could wreck our computer for all I know"


Please post all of the Pros and Cons of Mozilla Firefox so I can convince my mom.

its the best browser out... built-in pop-up blocker....skinable and NO GAPING SECURTIY HOLES, like IE

Firefox Home

Tweak is working like a charm considering i only connect at 26.4 kpbs a sec i&#39;m seeing a big difference in loading times. Thanks Taco&#33;&#33;

No spyware, tabbed browsing, very similar interface to ie (if you know IE, you can easily figure out FireFox), hundreds of useful extensions, better form manegment, better password manegment, the list goes on and on.

I will add more as I remember more =).

I used to have it , have any of you ever used msn explorer, i used to play an online game and it like hafled my refresh time , but it has a horrible layout <_< ..

I was watching this programme last night and the guy said, now i&#39;m going to tell you some of the best browsers. Then i said: I bet he says firefox then oopera.. and he did O.o hehe. Yeh i might get firefox again, i had it at one point... then my dad reset the whole pc <_<


I might get it again it was really good ^.^

hahahahah.......lol.... THAT was hillarious....*sighs*.... well let&#39;s start by IT&#39;S FREE.... IT CAN ACTUALLY RENDER CSS2(not like some other browsers *cough**cough*)......IT PROTECTS YOU FROM SPYWARE (so it is less likely to get adware)... and last but not least IT WON&#39;T WRECK OFF YOUR COMPUTER.....
well they are all pros... i don&#39;t think firefox has any cons

EDIT: there&#39;s always gonna be some microsoft addict that&#39;s gona tell you IE is better but it&#39;s not....... as far as opera goes... they&#39;re the same but firefox is more customizable, but opera is a bit faster...... maxthon and avant are IE ripoffs so they&#39;re gonna have the same rendering problems....

Hmm that speed up thing works quite well, although i couldn&#39;t find the last one on the list... oh well
