Firewall Causing Long Load Time If Http Pipelining Enabled In Firefox

Hi,

Just installed bitdefender and I notice that if I enable HTTP pipelining in Firefox then some web sites don't load for a quite a few seconds. An example is http://www.nvidia.co.uk/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-uk.

If pipelining is disabled the pages load quickly.

This did not happen with Windows Firewall.

Any ideas?

You don't say how you enabled HTTP pipelining. In anycase it can't hurt to look at the article linked below.

Speed Up Your Firefox by Adjusting Your HTTP Pipelining

Disclosure: I am using the Firefox default setting on HTTP pipelining so I can't verify that the steps suggested in the article work.

Hi, yes I set-up pipelining in a similar way to that article. I have bitdefender on three pc's and all have the same issue. Oue pc has win 8 64bit, the others are Win 7 64bit and Win 7 32 bit. I tried on different Firefox profiles and they all exhibit the same behaviour.
