Firefox Tip
You can surf the Internet faster by making some simple tweaks in Firefox. Firefox will make one request at a time to a web page, the tweak wil enable the browser to make several request at once and speed up the rate at which the page loads. Follow these steps to speed up your Firefox.
1. Type about:config in the address bar and hit return.
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 any number such as 25. This means the browser will make 25 requests at once.
3. 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.
Now surf the Internet and you should see an improvement in page loading speeds.

Why was this not set as default settings if it increases the speed of page loading? Will encounter any problems implementing these changes?
