Firefox<\/a> is a pretty popular browser, but I’ve just never been able to use it. I only have a dial up connection and Firefox<\/a> just goes too slow & sometimes it times out before it even loads the page. I did install FasterFox<\/a>. It is a plug in designed to load webpages faster. I guess it makes a difference, but pages still tend to not load. The other day I came across another Firefox<\/a> plug in designed to load pages faster. This one is called FireTune<\/a>. I installed it and so far it does seem to have made a difference. I haven’t had a page not load yet. The page loading speed is better than it was too. I’m probably still not going to use Firefox<\/a> full time though.
It’s just not as fast as the browser I currently use, Maxthon<\/a>. Maxthon<\/a> is based on the Internet Explorer browser engine, but has more features such as: <\/p>\n

Tabbed Browsing Interface
Mouse Gestures
Super Drag&Drop
Privacy Protection
AD Hunter
RSS Reader
IE Extensions Support
External Utility Bar
Skinning <\/p>\n

On the downside, Maxthon <\/a>does have a tendency to crash once in a while.
On the plus side, the tabbed browsing alone makes it worth the switch, not to mention the faster page loading. Maxthon<\/a> is free, so if you’re looking for a different browser, you might want to give this one a try<\/a>.<\/p>\n
