boywonder Posted December 21, 2005 CID Share Posted December 21, 2005 I've recently made the change from IE6 to FireFox and I have to say it's kicks a$$. Has not made any improvements towards my DL/UPLoad though. Other than that my browsing speed RoCkS!! (Super fast) Anyone know of some great tweaks for it? I have FasterFox installed thats about it. Thanks Long Live FireFox Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/9883-firefox/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
richcornucopia Posted December 21, 2005 CID Share Posted December 21, 2005 Faster fox is about the only thing that did any good for me when I used firefox. But now I'm a converted buddhist, I mean opera user. Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/9883-firefox/#findComment-102531 Share on other sites More sharing options...

asubaseball727 Posted December 22, 2005 CID Share Posted December 22, 2005 I have the google toolbar installed on mine, but is there any way i can add a pop-up blocker. It seems as Firefox grows, so does the advertising and the pop ups. Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/9883-firefox/#findComment-102765 Share on other sites More sharing options...
