Cool Attention Firefox users

More speed - even greater efficiency.

Found the download below - Firetune - and it really does work. It does not seem to be listed in the Firefox extensions.

Enjoy.

Installed and running nicely

I've used Firetune a few times on my browser. Imo, it just does not do enough to warrant using

I am on a 2Mb connection from e7even, and cannot see any difference on any site before and after using Firetune

I'm really glad that it has worked for you

I did find that the tips near the end of this thread were the best for making things run faster: http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?t=452385

Try them and see what you think

Stops the new, very clever Flash Pop-Up ads that Firefox fails to catch.
