For firefox good add ons
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1865/ download this first, then the 2nd link down here
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1136/
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2410/
https://addons.update.mozilla.org/firefox/722/
https://addons.update.mozilla.org/firefox/1419/

This works only for broadband and DSL on Firefox. No Dial Up


1.Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit enter. Scroll down and look for the following entries: (copy and pasting them into the search makes it easier to find)

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 receives.


If you're using a broadband connection you'll load pages MUCH faster now!

Starting in Firefox 2.0, The option to block third-party cookies has been removed from the user interface [1]. Firefox 2.0 users who wish to limit allowed cookies to those set by the originating website can use about:config to modify the preference network.cookie.cookieBehavior to "1"

Is it Internet Explorer or Windows Explorer?
Internet Explorer is a internet browser
Windows Explorer is system component, do not terminate that

I used the torrent for the paid version, that shit was absolute garbage. Just use Windows Firewall, I'm a heavy downloader and I haven't had a problem yet. I got that avast! it protects your pc well
