Google Chrome

Enhance Google Chrome speed by clicking on the ‘wrench’ located to the extreme right of the toolbar, selecting ‘Settings’. Then click below on the link ‘show advanced settings’. Under Privacy uncheck ‘Use a prediction service to help complete searches and URLs typed in the address bar ‘, ‘Use a web service to help resolve spelling errors’, ‘Automatically send usage statistics and crash reports to Google’ and ‘Send a ‘Do Not Track’ request with your browsing traffic’.

Selecting ‘Extensions’ then uncheck ‘Enabled’ from the extensions which are not in use from long time. Restart Google Chrome to finish updating.

Mozilla Firefox

Go to ‘Firefox’ button under dropdown menu and go to ‘options’ > ‘options’. Under ‘Advanced’ Tab > go to ‘Network’ tab and set ‘Limit Cache to’ value to 80 MB of ‘disk space’.

Go to ‘Firefox’ button again under dropdown menu and go to ‘Add-ons’ > ‘Extensions’. Disable extensions using ‘Disable’ button in front of extensions for extensions which are not currently in use from long time. Restart Mozilla Firefox to confirm changes.

Internet Explorer

Start increasing your Internet Explorer by using the built in settings. By default, Internet Explorer Performance is installed with the operating system. Close all the programs you are running on your computer. Click ‘Start’, and then select ‘Control Panel’. Choose ‘Find’ and ‘Fix Problems’ located below ‘System and Security’. Click on ‘View All’ on the task panel located on the left. Select ‘Internet Explorer Performance’ and ‘Next’ in the dialogue box. Allow the program to run and fix any issues to optimize your Internet Explorer, and click ‘Close’ when done.

Remove all add-ons not in use at present. Find add-ons by clicking on ‘Tools’ from the toolbar tab scroll down and select ‘Manage Add-ons’. Choose any add-ons that are not in use presently, and remove or disable them as allowable. Each Internet Explorer add-on varies in how you can handle it. ‘Disable’ allow you to continue the add-on in the browser for later reactivation, but not everyone will allow you to do that. In that case, remove the unused program.

Decrease the total of hard drive space the browser use for caching websites. Click on ‘Tools’, then ‘Internet Options’; then, under ‘Browser History’, select ‘Settings’, and lower the disk space to use to 80.
