I got this from a friend who no doubt probably got it from somewhere else. It works quite well though...
If you run Firefox, you already know it's worlds faster than IE.
But you can tweak it and make it a lot faster still.
In the address bar, enter: "about:config" and hit enter (or press go)
You'll see a ton of settings. The three we care about here are:
network.http.pipelining
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests
network.http.proxy.pipelining
Set them to
network.http.pipelining = True
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests = 30
network.http.proxy.pipelining = True
Do that, makes pages load a million times faster
