For those who havent done this yet and are using firefox and having trouble loading pages quickly, i suggest this.

1.Type about:config into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:

network.http.pipelining
network.http.proxy.pipelining
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests

Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading.

2. Alter the entries as follows:

Set network.http.pipelining to true
Set network.http.proxy.pipelining to true
Set network.http.pipelining.maxrequests to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once. (Don't put higher than 30, coz some sites will think u r hammering and will ban u...)

3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New Integer. Name it nglayout.initialpaint.delay and set its value to 0. This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives.

If you're using a broadband connection you'll load pages MUCH faster now. I did it and it halfed my page loading time.

Dont worry totally legal.

Well just another tip: set network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server/proxy to 8 or something. That will allow you to download more than 2 files at the same time from the same server.

Yup. When I stuck it on another computer, I downloaded all the extensions I like, and then went to do that and it was already done.

Same here,

It just makes the "Site server" use more "power" (I think)

If you are a "noob" at this, go to mozilla's site and browse for fasterfox,
its one of the most dl'ed plugin/add-on on Mozillas site

You're right, the internet is insane on Firefox now.  I hope the number of requests doesn't slow anyone else down using the internet in my house though, it seems like something that would.
