Speed up Firefox’s load time (PC)

Get Firefox!

Speed up load time
• Firefox is slow to load initially on Windows XP. You can speed this up a bit by using XP’s built in prefetcher. Simply right-click on the Firefox icon you use to start the browser. Add the text /Prefetch:1 to the end of the line in the target field.

The whole line should look something like the following:
“C:Program FilesMozilla Firefoxfirefox.exe” /Prefetch:1
