Firefox is the fastest browser around. Heres a little tweak that's easy to do and sends the browser into overdrive.

All you've got to do is type "about:config" into your address bar, wait for it to load, then alter the following entries:

change "network.http.pipelining" to "true", "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true" and lastly "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to 30, meaning it will be able to make 30 requests at once.

Alternately You can simply install this .xpi

*hedonist-x.com/mirror/firefox/ftp....eak_network_settings/tweak_network-1.0-fx.xpi

then, open Firefox and under "Tools" use the Tweak Network Settings GUI and then make the changes.
