Maybe because you have no idea what you're talking about?

The patch is coded in Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0.

After disassembling, you can see here it concatenates "defaults\\profile\\user.js" onto the Firefox dir:

code:

---

00409C79   . 68 3C904000    PUSH Firefox_.0040903C                   ;  UNICODE "defaults\\profile\\user.js"
00409C7E   . FF15 30104000  CALL DWORD PTR DS:[<&MSVBVM60.__vbaStrCa>;  MSVBVM60.__vbaStrCat

---

Interesting string reference:

code:

---

Text strings referenced in Firefox_:.text, item 513
Address=0040A113
Disassembly=MOV DWORD PTR SS:[EBP-64],Firefox_.00409398
Text string=UNICODE "C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox\\defaults\\profile\\user.js"

---

Anyway, all the patch does is create the file:

C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\profile\user.js

Shall we take a guess at what it writes to the file?

From the disassembly we can see

code:

---

00407785   . 2F 2F 20 45 6E>ASCII "// Enable pipeli"
00407795   . 6E 69 6E 67 3A>ASCII "ning:

004077A5   . 28 22 6E 65 74>ASCII "("network.http.p"
004077B5   . 69 70 65 6C 69>ASCII "ipelining", true"

004077D5   . 65 74 77 6F 72>ASCII "etwork.http.prox"

00407805   . 66 28 22 6E 65>ASCII "f("network.http."
00407815   . 70 69 70 65 6C>ASCII "pipelining.maxre"
00407825   . 71 75 65 73 74>ASCII "quests", 100)
",0

---

Which is

// Enable pipelining:
user_pref("network.http.pipelining", true);
user_pref("network.http.proxy.pipe lining", true);
user_pref("network.http.pipelining.maxrequests", 100)

If the file already exists, then it assumes that it's already patched and allows you to unpatch, which simply deletes the file. We can see this here:


Correction. When the patch patches, it creates an empty directory at

C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\

named "i386".

If this exists when the patch's exe is run, it knows firefox has been previously patched, and will allow you to unpatch, deleting the user.js file and i386 directory.

You can see this here:

code:

EDIT: Also, applying these tweaks makes your browser non-rfc compliant and may get you banned from some servers which monitor the amount of connections a single IP makes.

Hmm. Ok thanks for the reply Segosa. Sorry for not knowing anything. Ill look into what i post now Sorry

Anyway.. After all it does change the speed, without having to do much... It gets the job done.
