Firefox 2 settings optimised for broadband

These settings should be changed to optimise Firefox for use on a broadband connection:

Go to the internal webpage about:config
Then enter the filter: network.http
Find and select the setting network.http.pipelining and toggle it to the value true
Find and doubleclick the setting network.http.pipelining.maxrequests and change the default value (4) to something like 15
Find and select the setting network.http.proxy.pipelining and toggle it to the value true

Change the filter to: nglayout
If it isn't already there, add the setting nglayout.initialpaint.delay by rightclicking and selecting the menu option New > Integer and set it to the value 0 (zero).

Firefox Favorite Add-on [8]: Zombie Keys

Entering European languages (which include diacritics (accented characters, diaeresis, umlauts, etc.), ligatures, the Euro sign, etc.) into Mozilla applications using an English keyboard doesn't have to be a pain any more!

This extension implements Microsoft's Keyboard shortcuts for international characters (http://office.microsoft.com/assistance/hfws.aspx?AssetID=HP051865621033).

Use ZombieKeys and bring dead keys to life!
