CREDIT CARD EXPLOIT

Only Firefox has a fix.
type "about:config" in the address bar.
find "network.enableIDN"
double click it, the status should change to "false", or rightclick and hit toggle

SPEED HACK (pipeline -- about:config version!!!! )

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: (by double clicking them)

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. (I changed mine to 100, works great.)

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



Have fun with these guys!!! and PROTECT YOUR FIREFOX TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well apparently people can get your Credit Card numbers off of firefox on some pages. This is supposed to prevent that.
It may only be on older versions though.
