How do you make Firefox start up faster?

One thing you could do is, make Firefox start with a blank page rather than having a homepage which has to load and slows down Firefox at start. So to make Firefox load with a blank page, = Tools > Options > Main (click on the tab at the top) > Click on the drop down part in the Start Up section and then choose "Show a blank page"

Hope this helps.

You could also try getting rid of some old add-ons you don't need. Or you can get an add-on which can allow Firefox to be minimized to the system tray so you never have to close it.

about:config adaptations to make Firefox faster

To configure the firefox browser:

3. Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:

(you can find these quickly by typing "network.http" in the filter field)

* 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.

4. 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 20. This means it will make 20 requests at once (8 should however be adequate to provide a significant boost).

Fetch only what you click.

Firefox has this wacky little feature that downloads pages from links it thinks you may click on pages you view, like the top result on a page of Google results. This means you use up bandwidth and CPU cycles and store history for web pages you may not have ever viewed. Creepy, eh? To stop that madness, set the network.prefetch-next key to false.

enter about:config in the searchbar

press enter or click go

in the filter text box,enter:

network.prefetch-next

right click on false and select toggle to switch to: true

Limit RAM usage

All versions: Goodness knows I've done a good amount of belly-aching about Firefox's voracious appetite for RAM. (It's consistently the most memory-intensive process on both my PC and Mac.) Happily a simple config tweak got Mem Use right back down to a more comfortable number. Along with the previous prefetch mod, set your browser.cache.disk.capacity to a value that fits your total RAM.

Depends on your system's total memory. According to Computerworld:

right click on value and select modify,enter 5000

layout.spellcheckDefault = 2 turns on Firefox 2's spell-checking in input fields as well as textareas.

How do you fix Firefox certificate errors?

The "invalid security certificate" errors are problems with the website you are visiting, not Firefox. The site is supposed to present a security certificate to demonstrate that it is safe and secure. If the site has no certificate, an unlocked lock appears at the bottom of the screen. If the site has a certificate, and it is valid, a locked lock will appear at the bottom. If the site has a security certificate, but it is wrong / outdated, then Firefox will warn you that someone might be trying to deceive you. You can bypass the message by clicking the "Add an exception" button, and then retrieving the certificate and viewing it.
