I notice the speed, thanks Dyne.

i fail to see your analogy... a 10 year old kid isnt going to know what nutscrape is. i honesly doubt most will know what either is. but they're more likly to know what IE is over what Firefox is. so how is IE the new netscape?

IE still has 90% of the web browsing userbase. Firefox has about 5%, i think they said thier goal at firefox is to have 10% by next year.

Dont get me wrong, IE is by far the very worst possible browser one could get right now. But im not getting what you mean when you say its the new Netscape.

So how does this work? Does it preload links? Cause I don't want that. :unsure: *not sure if that's possible*

And does that cost extra bandwith? Because I have to keep an eye on my data limit. :(

Re: Make Firefox Faster
 

i'd have to say no. cuz your not downloading anything extra.

think of it like a glass of milk is the website :D
whether or not you drink (download) that milk with 1 straw, or 4 straws, your still getting the same amount.

so a sites a site. it doesnt matter how quickly you download the site, its still getting downloaded.



:D :sneaky:

Web pages are peanuts compared to multimedia files. My estimate is that you wouldn't even download 10 megs just by browsing pages during a period of a month, on low-image sites; however, downloading two or three mp3s (of average size) would use the same amount of bandwidth.

Huh? :crazy:

;) Thanks.

Re: Make Firefox Faster
 

This works great! Awesome. I see the difference. Coolness

Re: Make Firefox Faster
 

Ie can go a lot faster then Firefox if you tweak your registry settings, but I'm sure you guys dont wanna mess with your registry.

In any case, IE is good for sites like MTV and LAUNCH for playing Music Videos. Whenever I went on Firefox it said I didn't have Windows Media Player Plug-in, and I installed it. I went on MTV.COM LIVE with IE and it recognized it.... so Firefox still has a lot of kinks and bugs to work out of their end.

Firefox can't do cursor trails.

Re: Make Firefox Faster
 

hmm another one of these tuning tips... nothing new. It may make Firefox seem faster at first but after awhile firefox may actually display pages slower after or affect the computer performance. See the post made by Michael at end of the devnulled.com article.

Also Do see http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/asa/archives/007164.html and also probably THE original source that started the Firefox tuning. http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=53650
