    If you also use firefox and would like to surf at 30 times the more speed then right now then use the following tips. Thanks.

    First Create a .reg file and write the following into it.


    REGEDIT4
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters]
    "TcpWindowSize"=dword:faf0
    "Tcp1323Opts"=dword:0


    Now open your firefox:

    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.

    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! DialUp user don't do this.

    Thanks. Rep will be appriciated if you like this.

    The advice you provided is good in some cases, but it can also cause problems with some sites. If anyone decides to use the advice and starts having problems accessing web sites, just remember what to change back...
