Firefox addons

1. Fasterfox
Ok, its easy to do this. Go here and download Fasterfox. This would actually cache what pages you go to so you dont have to wait the next time round and stuff. To edit it, go to
Tools>Add-ons
Click on Fasterfox and then "options". You can change whatever you want from there, such as changing the speed and things. (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1269 for here)
3. Get the Web Developer add-on
This "Web Developer" add-on is actually not just for web developers. It has many functions, such as viewing form information, clearing private data, viewing source code and (MUCH) more. This Web Developer add-on is a MUST-HAVE for the browser lover. Get this cool add-on from here.

hehe nice programs ^^, also theres a simple yet useful trick in firefox to speed up loading by setting up pipelining so it loads more than 4 objects at once,
simply go to the addressbar type in "about:config" (no quotation marks) and in the search area that pops up, type in "pipe" then there should be three-four strings, set all the bools to true and the value to 32, simple, eh?

yup i have done that already ^^
