Add Programs to Windows Startup:

You can now add your favorite programs to Windows Startup without the need for using the start-up folder. Here is a way to do this:

Open the Registry Editor and navigate to the following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run On the right-side
pane, create a new “String Value” and rename it to the name of the program that you want to
add (you can give any name, it doesn’t matter). Double-click on the “String Value”, in the “Value
data” field add the path of the executable program that has to execute at startup. Reboot the computer to see the changes in effect.

Spped Up Your Internet

speed up your internet connection using firefox

1. Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit return. Scroll
down and look for the following entries:

network.http.pipelining
network.http.proxy.pipelining
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests

Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time.
When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really
speeds up page loading.

2. Alter the entries as follows:

Set “network.http.pipelining” to “true”

Set “network.http.proxy.pipelining” to “true”

Set “network.http.pipelining.maxrequests” to some number like 30. This
means it will make 30 requests at once.

3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer.
Name it “nglayout.initialpaint.delay” and set its value to “0?.
This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it recieves.

If you’re using a brodband connection you’ll load pages 2-3 times faster now.
