Firefox is one of the best internet browser.Study shows that the number of people using Firefox as primary browser is increasing rapidly.Maximum number of tech geeks uses Mozilla Firefox instead of Internet Explorer.
Firefox browser looks better than IE .It loads faster than IE and have many plugins (add-ons) that enhance its functionality (Though IE also added some extra functionality in its 9 and later version) .
I am also using Firefox for surfing internet.From last few days I was getting some problem while using it.
My Firefox keeps on loading the page.Even welcome page was taking a long time to load.A circle in the tabs keeps on moving which shows that page is still loading.
Sometimes circle keeps on moving and i have to open a new blank tab.I was completely annoyed with this.I searched Mozilla forums and found this solution:-
1) Type about:config in the address bar and press the "Enter" key.
2) When you see a warning, click I'll be careful, I promise! button.
3) In the Filter bar, type network.http.max-connections
4) Right click the preference network.http.max-connections and choose Modify change the value to 30 or 48 click OK. (default value is 256)
5) Close the about:config tab and  Restart Firefox.

Another alternate solution for this problem is to disable the extra addons and plugins that you have installed.
Follow these steps to remove/disable addons or plugins:-
1) Go to Add-ons Manager by clicking Add-ons from Tools menu.Alternatively you can use command  ctrl+shift+A
2) Click on Disable button to disable the add-ons.You can uninstall these add-ons by clicking on Remove button.
3)You can also remove/disable extra plugins by selecting plugins from right sidebar.

After removing the extra add-ons/plugins , restart the Firefox.
Hope this solution will help you.If you have face same problem or still facing problem than please share it in comments

Companies like Google or Facebook earn BILLIONS OF $$$ every quarter,just because we, the Internet users use their services.It is time to understand, that we “the users” decide who is earning the big money.If we together decide to use the services of a company that shares profits with us,there is nothing that the other companies could do about it.It’s so easy: the more users that join the WAZZUB Family for free,the more money we “the users” will earn! Not only these two but many others like Yahoo, Bing are making a lot of money just because of us.These tech giants don't share their profit with the users surfing on these sites.But now there is a site wazzub.info which offers its users to share profit.All you need to do is to signup for a free account and refer your friends through your referral link to join the site.Sign up is free and is guaranteed to be free for always.
Here is a link to open a new account to wazzub.info

Please note that this site is still not launched but you can join and refer friends.Here are wordings from site:-
 "WAZZUB is in pre-launch until April 9, 2012. The more users that join our network through your personal link the more your $FACTOR will grow. Each new member 5 generations deep let your $FACTOR grow by 1. After launch we will pay 50% of WAZZUB's profits to our pre-launch members every month.
We simply divide the earnings through the total amount of $FACTORs of all members. Let us say for June the rate per $FACTOR is US$1.00 and your personal $FACTOR is 3905. That means we will pay you 3905 x 1.00 = US$3905.00!
"

Happy earning. Below is a Calulator which shows how much you can earn in a month

That's quite a bit trickier, or at least it used to be. There's a nifty bookmarklet called DotEPUB that will convert whatever page you're currently on into the widely used EPUB format. Here's how to use it:

1. Point your browser to the DotEPUB page. (Note: the bookmarklet will not work using Internet Explorer, but is fine with Firefox, Chrome, Safari or Opera.) 


2. There is only one setting--simplicity itself. Check or uncheck Immersive mode on the right side of the page. If it's on, links, images, and videos are stripped out entirely; if it's off, you will be warned that there are images and asked if you want to strip them out. 
   
   Step 2: Choose mode.


3. When you've decided, drag the DotEPUB logo from the top left onto your bookmark toolbar. If your browser doesn't support that or it doesn't seem to work for you, just click manual installation, then copy and paste the text into a new bookmark. 


4. You're all set. The next time you're on a Web page you'd rather read later, just click the bookmarklet and DotEPUB will convert it and save as an EPUB file. Note that if you turned off Immersive mode, you will need to decide whether or not to load images. This is not usually a good idea unless they are charts or tables that are integral to understanding the text. 
   
   

   Step 4: Non-immersive mode warning.
   If your primary e-reader is a Kindle, which doesn't support EPUB format, check out this workaround to convert EPUB files into formats compatible with Kindle.

It is very important to backup you system information.Whenever you install new software then there are chances of  corrupting files.You are safe  once you have taken backup.You can restore it whenever you find any problem with system files.Below are steps to back up system information in Windows 7 : -
1. Open the Control Panel, then click "System and Security," then "System," then "System protection" on the left.

2. A small window should pop up with the System Protection tab highlighted. Click "Create..." near the bottom.

3. Enter a label to help you remember which backup is which. Windows should now begin creating your restore point. It takes some time, especially if you've been using your computer for a while and installing lots of programs. After a bit, you should get a message informing you that the procedure competed successfully. 4. To restore your system, repeat step 1, then click "System Restore..." near the top of the pop-up. You'll be asked to select a restore point, and then Windows will roll you back to that time. This means any changes you made to your system, like installing software or changing settings, will be lost, so be careful!

How to Clean Your Computer's Registry

The Windows Registry is an enormous batch of files containing information about almost everything that occurs on the computer, from a visit to a Web site to a program installation. The registry also contains information about drivers and other essential programs, like DLLs -- small helper programs that often work with more than one application. This information is stored in the form of "keys" that help programs run. It's like a big blueprint for where everything goes on your computer and how it all fits together. Only computers running Windows operating systems have registries, and despite rumors to the contrary, Windows 7 will have a registry. A registry may have hundreds of thousands of entries, and new entries are created all the time. As it fills with information, the registry may cause a computer's performance to suffer. One problem is that Windows almost never removes registry entries, even if a program is uninstalled, as most uninstallers aren't able to effectively remove their own registry keys. And as files are moved around and programs are uninstalled, some registry keys point to programs or files that no longer exist or are located elsewhere. Fortunately, these errors don't have to be tolerated. The registry can be cleaned up, though not completely. And for your troubles, you may get better performance and decreased boot time. Some satisfied users report fewer instances of lag or Windows hanging (when the computer isn't responding). The exact performance boost varies depending on the state of the registry and the effectiveness of the cleaner program employed. You may also free up disk space, although most registry entries are very small. Registry cleaning is not without risks. This is a very sensitive area of your computer, and if you're happy with how your computer is running, don't go digging around. Trying to manually edit your registry can create errors in the registry that make it impossible to load Windows. Some registry-cleaning programs have been known to delete important registry keys or essential DLL files. And the performance improvements may be negligible, while running the program and approving each recommended deletion could take hours. In addition, reliable data on how registry cleaners affect performance are almost impossible to find. Most "performance tests" are actually produced by the developers of registry-cleaning tools. Despite these concerns, it is­ possible to clean out some of the registry's gunk, and your computer may be better off for it. On the next page, we'll take a look at how to go about this delicate job.
