Download Fasterfox 2.0.0

It took a while, but Fasterfox has been updated to version 2.0.0. This extension for Firefox allows tweaking of the aforementioned web browser. The program allows you to fine-tune things such as cache, the connection and pipelining. In addition, there is also a feature called Enhanced Prefetching. This uses unused bandwidth to pre-fetch data behind the links on a web page, so that they quickly appear on the screen once they are actually clicked. More information about this program and its possibilities can be found in this FAQ are being found. Besides adding several translations and fixing a bug, the biggest change in this release is of course the support for Firefox 2.0. For the sake of completeness, we give you all the changes that have been made since the previous entry in the muck tracker:
