Firefox is very slow accessing websites. By the time Firefox displays the page, I can open IE9, type in the URL and have the webpage up completely. I am running Firefox 8.0 with Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. Even Opera runs faster. What can be slowing it down? What options should I change?

The default of the pref network.http.max-connections has been increased from 30 to 256 in Firefox 6+ versions.

Try to decrease the value of the pref network.http.max-connections from 256 to 30 as used in Firefox 3 versions.

Thanks
