FIREFOX HACKS - 100% FASTER INTERNET!

Did you know that by editing some hidden Firefox settings you can customize it to your liking and make it work A LOT FASTER? Here's how!

1>>Just go to the address bar and type "about:config" without quotes.

2>>A page will appear warning you about the consequences of what might happen to your application if you do this. Click on "I'll be careful, I promise!"



3>>Now you have all the hidden settings of Firefox infront of you.



DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING HERE BECAUSE THIS MIGHT SERIOUSLY MESS THINGS UP!

Now we are going to tweak these settings to get more out of Firefox! Again, be very careful with everything.

MAKING FIREFOX FASTER

Okay, so now once you have the settings infront of you, go to the top where a bar is present with the label "Filter:".

1>>In this bar type 'network'. The very long list of options will get shortlisted to the only containing the word 'network'.

2>>Search for the option 'network.http.max-connections-per-server' and double click on it and set the integer value to '50'.

3>>Now search for the option 'network.http.pipelining' and double click on it to set the boolean value to 'True'.



4>>Now locate the option 'network.http.pipelining.maxrequests' and set the integer value to '10'. Don't make it larger than 10 because you might get banned from some website!

5>>Browse the Internet and feel the DIFFERENCE! :D
