3. set its value to 0 (zero)

Enjoy a less memory intensive FF

Eventually I figure out how do I protect myself ?

I'm currently use my online experience to be enjoyable and worry-free and that's why I use Secure Socket layer (SSL) encryption and other security procedures

Maybe I will state a simple security tips to keep in mind, for a safer online experience
