lizardo_manson Report post Posted March 25, 2011 (edited) I found this little application that i had never heard before and it's really doing the job. Firefox usually takes 4 or more (i have read people with 8 sec problems) seconds to open. But with this, Firefox will be loaded into memory (RAM) on boot. Visit the homepage Firefox Preloader or download the Windows version Here Note: The only downside is that it's suitable for computer with 2GB or more of memory due the fact that the browser is loaded into memory and it will take ate least the amount it was taking before when using it normally. I tested the program and now the browser open in 2.7 seconds, whenever it opened in 8 seconds before. Give it a test and check yourself if it helps you.

lizardo_manson Report post Posted April 25, 2011 (edited) For the Windows version click the word\link HERE and it should download automatically. The file is free of virus and the download comes directly from the official site. Edited April 25, 2011 by lizardo_manson Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
