Wanna speed up IE? check this out, bye bye FF! - GoFuckYourself.com

perfectodollars-gabrio · 02-05-2009, 09:51 AM

if you have a DSL / cable connection you can find useful things here, if you use IE7

FF is very fast but i still prefer Internet Explorer for some reason so after some checks today i found and just tested this trick

http://pcs.suite101.com/article.cfm/...ernet_explorer

i used the number "20" when it comes to the value he suggests instead to set to 10 and i have never seen it quicker with thumb websites.... give it a go.

tested here on XP PRO SP3 dsl 20mbit (yes if you dont change this thing thumbs still load a bit slow).

enjoy!

nice trick, but it'll take a little bit more than that to leave my beloved FF.

nation-x · 02-05-2009, 10:00 AM

you can do the same tweak to firefox.

Nice, now you'll get that virus and spyware much faster!

HorseShit · 02-05-2009, 10:04 AM

don't want to speed it up, don't use it anyway

IE is an abomination.

bronco67 · 02-05-2009, 10:42 AM

That's a great reason to dump the browser I've been using for 3 years.

bobby666 · 02-05-2009, 10:59 AM

i only want to remove it from my system

HTTP RPC dictate that you can only send 2 concurrent requests to a server.
Both IE and FF can get around this. It's a little bit embarrassing you only just found this out ;)

That said, I still hate FF with a passion. It's clunky, slow, and does all sorts of annoying shit, the most annoying of which is automagically updating on startup.

If I wanted to wait 5 minutes to surf the web.. I'd ask for it.

Chrome + Maxthon2 all the way. Chrome for slick, fast browsing, Maxthon2 for designing and debugging - it leaves FF for dead.

I guess I'll give it a try just for the heck of it although I am also using FF

papill0n · 02-05-2009, 01:28 PM

I will stick with FF although it is about time I took a look at chrome.

It's quite funny to see people getting defensive about which web browser they use.

These threads make me laugh.
