Increase the number of simultaneous XmlHttpRequests in Firefox

Firefox doesn't do a lot of simultaneous AJAX (or any kind of HTTP) requests. IE caps it at 2, too. This will allow you to test your XHR overload scripts, or just load pages faster in general.

1. Go to "about:config"
2. Find and edit the following
* network.http.pipelining=false
* network.http.pipelining.maxrequests=4
* network.http.proxy.pipeline=false
3. Make the false's true; I set my maxrequests at 20

Fix Firefox search engine ordering

1. Type about:config at your Firefox address bar.
2. Type browser.search.order at the filter bar.
3. Change browser.search.order.1 to Google.

The new del.icio.us extension broke my search engine order... cheeky plugin placed itself #1

Getting rid of 'port has been disabled for security reasons' in Firefox

1. Type about:config at your Firefox address bar.
2. Right click -> Select 'New String' -> Type network.security.ports.banned.override

I allow port 113 for various sundry firewall-related reasons
