Is there a way to extend the time out on Firefox when you have a slower internet connection?
I do not have a very fast internet connection and alot of time, I get time out error when trying to access various websites. Is there a way to go in and change the "time out" so I won't get that message so quickly, and perhaps will eventually get to the website I am trying to access?
Thanks.

Sorry, there is no setting for that in Firefox. That can be changed in Windows through the Registry.
Here's an article about ho to do that in WinXP - you'll have to see if it is the same in Win7, or find a similar article that pertains to Win7.
