You must've done it wrong then or you have a naturally slow connection because this shit is fast.

Go to Control Panel, click the Add/Remove Software. Look for the FireFox entry and click Uninstall. Go to http://www.Opera.com, download and install Opera 9.02.

Back on subject, well sort of, does that work in FF 2.0 or what version?

Hey thanks for the tip, I didn't even know that v2.0 for Firefox was out. Just updating to the new version helped a lot.

Well just another tip: set network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server/proxy to 8 or something. That will allow you to download more than 2 files at the same time from the same server.

That, for some reason, actually seems to make the internet go faster too, could also be the fact that i'm really tired though.
