How To Speed Up Firefox (Helpful Vanity)

[Xeth]

If you have XP Pro (only pro) you can fix your reservebandwidth from default of 20% to 0%. Type GPedit.msc in run. 1)Under the Local Computer Policy, click Administrative templates. 2) on the right double click Network. This opens the tree on the right side. 3)Now double click the Qos Packet Scheduler. Now Double click Limit reservable bandwith. This will open the properties box for the Qos packet scheduler. Under the settings tab (which will open by default) click enable, then change the % from 20 to 0. Now windows won't slow down your broadband! Bad windows, bad, bad! There is a bandwidth test as an extension

How To Speed Up Firefox

I dunno...Mach 5+, does it NEED to be sped up?

If it's running slow on today's computers, you got too much other %$&% running in the background. Do yourself a favor and turn off the garbage you'll never use.

Yeah I don't understand this behavior...When I have a cooking observation, I don't find a new astronomy forum to join and post my thoughts. Or when I have an insight into a labor law issue I don't run to a new blog on antique cars and post my cool views. Why do newbies post their non conservative insights here?

Welcome anyway...
