Try this, speeds up web pages, if you mean loading times then just try cleaning out your cach and history etc.

some mentioned you can change a few setting in firefox to make it faster.

This was it, if you get any problems just change it back to what it was

Open Firefox.
Type about:config in the addy bar.
Type network in the Filter box.
Double click network.http.pipelining & set it to TRUE.
Double click pipelining.maxrequests & set value to 10.

I tried it but didn't notice any/much difference.

Your welcome, you might like to try adblock plus, and flash block, they speed up pages as well.
