    Is this it? :
    1.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

    Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading.

    2. Alter the entries 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. This means it will make 30 requests at once.

    3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set its value to "0". This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it recieves.
    If you're using a broadband connection you'll load pages MUCH faster now!

    -----------------------------------------------------------

    Dosen't always help. In fact some sites will actually load slower as essentially you're trying to smack it with as many connections as it'll accept.

    So its kinda mean and greedy imo...but that's my 0.02 :P

    Erm, that may work in some cases, but it's probably illegal and IS inconsiderate to hosts. You're eating bandwidth for lunch.

    Nah. There's broadband and dialup. Anything that's "always on" is broadband. ;)
