Automate network settings of Firefox3 for better performance

FireTune is a freeware program that will help you to fine tune Firefox 3 for better performance. It will optimize several internal settings of Firefox (network settings) according to your computer and internet speed.

The whole optimization process is fully automated and does not require any 'geek' knowledge - just make your selection from the available speed configurations and FireTune will do the work.

It was developed for an easy and fast optimization of your browsing experience with Firefox and is based on a collection of popular and well working optimization settings used and tested by the experts.

FireTune does not modify the Firefox executable or any other Firefox binary file. You can always revert back to your original settings, if you not satisfied with the settings. In my experience found it performing well.

This utility helps you saves time which you would waste while doing this optimization manually. The application doesn’t need installation, just download, unzip and run the exe file and select your desired preferences.
