bandwidthbrowsingfirefox

I am using firefox 4. I want keep the bandwidth usage as low as possible when I am browsing the internet? What options do I get?

If I disable the option of "load image automatically", will still download the images and just block them?

I would like to block image and flash, but I want to know that there is a image/flash there…most of the website do not make use of the alt property, so that I will not be able to know there is a image if I blocked them.

Best Answer

Disable loading of images, JavaScript, all plugins, and automatic add-on updating.
