Here are some tips I found from Internet. I tried them myself
and it does work. If you have dial-up connection then just skip
it.
Here's something for broadband people that will really speed Firefox up
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
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 20.
This means it will make 20 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 recieves.
and it does work. If you have dial-up connection then just skip
it.
