Boost your surfing speed......With Firefox

Boost your surfing speed with just some tweaks. Most of the users using these tweaks give a pretty positive feedback of a boost in their surfing speed.

Firefox + IDM + TCP Optimizer

Plz do a speed test of your net connection before & after at http://speedtest.net/ to know what difference this software has made.

1) Every1 knows that how to Speed Up the Firefox.

Who dont know, just do the following.
* Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:

network.http.pipelining
network.http.proxy.pipelining
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests
* Alter the entries do as follows:
Set “network.http.pipelining” to “true”
Set “network.http.proxy.pipelining” to “true”
Set “network.http.pipelining.maxrequests” to some number like 30.
* Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer.
Name it “nglayout.initialpaint.delay” and set its value to “0″.

2) Now Download & Install IDM. ( The Best Download Manager I’ve ever used. )

3) Now Download TCP Optimizer
Download TCP Optimizer

When u open TCP Optimizer, dont do anything, just select the option ‘Optimal Settings’ & apply the changes.
In the next box, press OK and reboot.



Use Of TCP Optimizer 

The TCP optimizer works on the principle of bandwidth-delay. TCP optimizer uses product of bandwidth and delay of connection to find the best TCP window for your specific connection speed, thereby providing easy tuning of all related TCP/IP parameters, such as Maximum Transmission Unit, RWIN(The TCP receive window), and even advanced ones like QoS and ToS/Diffserv prioritization.

Then newer programs for TCP optimization also include the feature of testing average latency over multiple hosts, and finding the largest possible packet size (MTU). So this boosts up the speed upto 20 to 25 percent of the usual one
