How to Speed up Firefox page loading

I think for most broadband users getting Fasterfox http://fasterfox.mozdev.org/ and placing it on Optimized would be the best choice for improved speeds with little hassle and not as much strain on servers as Turbo Charged would cause. I would also try enabling the Enhanced Prefetching checkbox to show a lot of loading improvement for past-seen sites.

 

thanks alot for this tip!

 

an p.s. geestar,i guess bein h...gh doesnt make some people so dumb eh? stay burning!

 

Just thought that I would add this one: a great tool for backing up your FF user profile: BackupFox available here http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=291258

Hey everyone, prior to geestar's post about improving the Firefox loading, how would I know if am using a bandwidth? I know this is a pretty stupid question but hey, am a newbie.. And what if you're using a dial-up? (Am not using dial-up)will this affect the speed?

By the way, Am using cable connection..

Pls reply, I really appreciate it. THANKS!

 

New firefox....

Geestar wtf

'You are about to install Bon Echo'

Is this a leak from mozilla?

 

Yeah, lol, i was thinking the exact same thing....

 

I just tried Bon Echo....

It is the new firefox

But i lost all my extensions when i used it so I'm sticking with my current version

 

Bon Echo is somewhat of a code name.....uh, sorta like Longhorn before it was Vista. If you want more info on it just let me know I will post it.

I also could not use some of my extensions (I guess I should of posted that you might loose them) but im ok with that as I tend to test them all and do not use them.

@-Schwaber-

You use bandwith everytime you access the internet.

 

lol.. Thanks. Now that I know it, its very stupid of me to ask that.. haha, can't believe that it was as simple as that.

 

FAAAAAAKKKKK i dunno how u did it but ure my GOD. dude thanks a million now i can use up my 400mb dl FASTER THAN EVER



P.S. any 1 who can help me wid fixin my xbox give me a shout

 

whats the difference between bon echo and deer park?

 

i gotta make this one quick,im using IE (eeeew, i think im going to pass out)
can anyone help me out, i just recently updated my firefox to version 1.502 and before i updated my firefox was working perfectly, then after the update, my firefox wont connect anymore, ive already reinstalled it too and nothing works, need help!!!
i need my firefox, and i need internet, but im willing to not use IE for a while.

 

Maybe somehow someway when firefox updated your firewall may have blocked firefox from connect to the internet. Check your firewall to check.

Also, here are previous versions of firefox. Post back and let me know if everything is working.

how do i download those files on the site.

 

here is 1.5 http://mozilla.isc.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/1.5/win32/en-US/Firefox Setup 1.5.exe

If you want an earlier version let me know.

Here is a how it works,

1. Pick a version you want
2. Select Win32 (Windows 32-bit)
3. Select en-US (English-US)
4. Select Firefox Setup 1.5.exe (or whatever the .exe version is)

 

ok, thanks alot man, your a life saver.

 

No problem -solargame- just glad I can help.
