If you use firefox, download this extension. It helps websites load faster. I love it.

If you don't use firefox you should.

You really should go into options and turn it to "Courteous" because some websites don't like the faster settings...but "Turbocharged" is just so fun!

I never used Firefox because it is so slow. Maybe this will change my mind.

Another reason I never use it is the bank. I have the luxury of developing IE application only since that is what's rolled out to the entire bank. I don't have to worry about Firefox compatibility which can be time consuming with javascript and css.

Yeah, I've noticed there are times when FF doesn't like javascript, and sometimes I'm forced to use IE.

But overall, I like Firefox better. I don't notice it being much slower than IE.

I dont notice any slowness to it, there is also this https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1419/ that allows you to view IE pages without closing firefox, i love it, just click on the little firefox symbol in the bottom right corner and it allows you to open that page in IE coding within firefox so you dont have to open a new browser!
