Are you on broadband Larry?
There are some tweaks for FF on broadband, I think Clint posted them once perhaps (I could be wrong).
Anyways this is what I have, I'm on dialup so I can't verify it :(
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.
HTH Larry, let me know if it does.

I have noticed that when using FF and I launch to any site (URL)that it does not connect the first time and shows me a message that it times out. I try it the second time and it always connects. Is it just a matter of extending the time if that is possible?
Peter might know the answer to this. I believe he uses FF.
