Reply #6: Sometimes you have to uninstall and reinstall [View All]

Some versions won't do plugins if the download came in a zipped file.

Save the program to your desktop and install that way. You should always download the program first, then install it, as opposed to installing directly from online.

Do you have a high speed connection? because if you do, the following tweak will make your pages load faster still!

"Open Firefox.
Type "about:config" in the address bar (no quotation marks).
Find these options, double click each one and change to below values:

network.http.max-connections: 48 (24)

network.http.max-connections-per-server: 24 (8)

network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy: 12 (4)

network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server: 6 (2)

network.http.pipelining: true

network.http.pipelining.maxrequests: 32 (4)

network.http.proxy.pipelining: true

right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set its value to "0".

Close Firefox and enjoy the faster browsing."
