Firefox Comparison Guide:


Performance Features Technical Details


Block speed hogging images:
Secure IE Suite:
Firefox:


The Secure IE Suite can be set to block a number of speed hogging culprits including images, Flash animations, videos and background sounds.

Firefox allows your to manually input websites that you don't want to load images. But this means that all images on that website are completely blocked.






Features a "virtual address book" of websites for faster connections:
Secure IE Suite:
Firefox:


Every website (such as www.yahoo.com) has a corresponding number, similar to a phone number, attached to it. (This is technically called an IP address.) They do this because it would be hard for a normal internet user to remember that 122.448.899.90 is the number for Yahoo. For a typical web browser this means that every time www.yahoo.com is typed in, the browser has to “dial up” the websites and ask for the correct “phone number”. Secure IE is different in that it remembers these numbers every time you call and saves them in a virtual address book (this is also known as DNS caching). This means less time wasted on “dialing” and less time for a website to load. What’s more, websites, like people, sometimes move and change addresses. Secure IE is constantly monitoring these and updating its address book.

Firefox does not use DNS caching and therefore has to search out a website's IP address every time it is typed in.






Speed increase is automatic:
Secure IE Suite:
Firefox:


Upon installation, Secure IE automatically tunes up your Internet to maximize speed and stability up to 400%. This means faster surfing, speedier downloads and a more stable Internet.

Firefox does not support any Internet connection management features.
