Very useful information. Is it just me,but I just installed Firefox so I could download a file that IE7 was blocking and first impressions of Firefox is that it is very slow and text is harder to read. I have DSL. Do I have to uninstall IE7 to make it run faster(which I don´t want to do)? What you are saying seems to confirm the slowness. :Happy

This is a tweak i´m also using,IE7 for what i know has nothing to do with slow browsing in firefox,there´s also a ready add on called fasterfox in alternative to manual settings,anyways it could also be useful to try and modify the value of 30 requests at once in" network.http. <br />pipelining.maxrequests according to the DSL speed of your connection,other useful add ons <br />are flashblock to block flash objects and RefControl to control what´s transmitted to sites as http referer,there are plenty of add ons on the Mozilla.org site (you can reach it directly from your browser>tools>add ons>download add ons (at least firefox is NOT part of the system, <br />but an external software,this was the main reason i started to use it some years ago) :Happy ❤️

Yeah, can´t see why you are having problems etype2... suggest you open up ´help\for IE users´ and familiarise yourself with Firefox... but believe me it sure ain´t slow LOL <br />Use the ´view\text size´ option if you need to resize text to make it more readable.
