Version: FireTune for Firefox 1.01
Pros: It made my FireFox browser about 15% faster than it was before I FireTuned it. So now I have to say that FireFox is the worlds fastest browser. Before it was real close on speed with Opera and Slim Browser, but that little extra made it #1. It's free and I say try it.

Version: FireTune for Firefox 1.1.3
Pros: As I reviewed on the previous version, this is a great utility for those of you that don't know how to tweak Firefox on your own!
Cons: However, I totally disagree with the review of pm32610! Once the settings of this program have been applied, there is no more use for the program. It makes neccesary changes to the browser so you get the most out of it, and when those changes are made to your browser they don't change back to origanal state!
Firetune isn't a must keep utility! So for those of you using this utility on a laptop, or if you have a small hardrive - once it has made neccesary changes its usefullness is done!

Version: FireTune for Firefox 1.1.4
"It didn't make any difference for ma."
Pros: I have a 6.0 DSL connection and use "Firefox" as my default browser. I didn't notice ant difference with "firetune" then without it. Maybe it didn't work for me because of my high speed connection, because I'm using "Vista" or both. I would like to chime in and say there is no spyware in this application as another comment claimed. When I had a slower connection it did help.
Cons: See pros:

Version: FireTune for Firefox 1.1.2
"Great Optimizer For Those Of You Scared To Do It Yourself!"
Pros: This Is a great tool for those of you who do not like to make changes to your systems on your own!
The optimizations are correctly placed into the about:config window of Firefox. A lot of research went into these optimizations,
and Total Idea makes it easy for the inexperienced computer users!
Cons: Only one:
There is no need to keep the software stored on the hard drive after you take your Firefox in for its tune up!
The changes are set to stay. If for some reason you need a tune up again - it would
have been after issues that would delete the software anyway!
