Configure Firefox In 8 Steps
Saturday. 11.8.08 3:21 am
Hands up to those of you who are using IE 7. Did you notice that IE 7 keep having time-out moments when you're waiting for an important file, email message, website or blog to load? Well, have you heard of Firefox yet? For sure Firefox is no slouch, but here are tweaks to make your browser sprint like Olympics champ Usain Bolt on the track. I tried this tip to boost my Firefox browsing speed and it works.


1. Fire up Firefox (make sure it is in offline mode).

2. Type about:config into the into the address bar (the space that shows the website address).


3. You will see a warning: This might void your warranty! Changing these advanced settings can be harmful to the performance of this application. You should only continue if you are sure of what you are doing. Don't be alarmed: Just click the button that says, I'll be careful, I promise!.


4. Pages and pages of lines in fine print will follow. Scroll down and search for this one: network.http.pipelining. The value is set at false. Double click that line. The value will change to true and the line will turn bold to show that it has been changed.


5. Do the same for network.http.proxy.pipelining - double click to change the value to true.


6. Double click network.http.pipelining.maxrequests and change the value from 4 to between 8 and 30.


7. Right click anywhere in the browser window, select Now and then Interger.



8. Type nglayout.initialpaint.delay into the window and set its value to 0. (The dialog boxes will come out one after another after you types in the configuration) This cuts the time the browser waits before it starts showing a Web page. Install the add-on, AdBlock Plus. Get it from mozilla.com. It prevents time-wasting ads and banners from loading.


This is what you should see after completing Step 8.

As with all settings tweaks, note down each changes you make, so that you can retrace your steps, if need be. Do note that the changes have not affected the stability of my pc for a whole month, after I've tweaked my Firefox Browser. So people, feel free to use these tweaks, but do remember to recommend this page/blog to everyone you know or just simply click on the Thumbs Up button for Stumble Upon users. Thank you.

P/S: This article was taken from a newspaper. But I've decided to add in screen-shots to make this tutorial much more easier to see and understand and also to follow through. Though this article does not belong to me in the first place, the added screen-shots make this tutorial unique in a way that I can claim it's mine now. Thank you!
