Nary a problem here. All is good and this thing is BLAZING fast!!!

Once all the extensions get updated I will be back to 100%. And to think all of this for FREE. Damn, I love the open source movement!!!!

tweaks for freaks...


Open Firefox 1.0 and type about:config in the address bar

1. Find browser.tabs.showSingleWindowModePrefs and double click on it so it = true
2. Find network.http.pipelining and double click on it so it = true
3. Find network.http.pipelining.maxrequests doule click on it and change it from 4 to 8

1. Then enables advanced tab options in your Tools/Options page ()
2. This enables option #3.
3. This makes FF use 8 threads to each page.. Bascially, if you thought FF was fast before, try it after this.

Nice tips dude, thanks

just downloaded this...wow!

I've been in IE forever, and I don't think I'm going to be too much anymore

It's a cool realization, isn't it?? Welcome to the club!!!

For two cool extensions check out Sessionsaver and User Agent Switcher. First one remembers all your tabs when you close or there's a crash and re-opens them when you reload, the second lets you change the browser id to IE, so Firefox will work with sites that block it.

Awesome browser.

Me niether. I've been using Firefox for right around a year now and the only time I can't use it is when I try to access my work's intranet from home. Besidse the occasional rendering issue its been smooth sailing.

Yeah, I worded it badly What I meant was sites that are not compatible with Firefox - like for example http://www.national-lottery.co.uk/. Click Sign In and you get

There aren't too many sites like this, but that extension sorts out the ones that there are.
