  How come when I use my Firefox to surf internet(this time round), it loads very slow then tells me connection timed out.
  
  but when I use my IE 7 to surf, the speed is reasonable and I can go to many overseas websites...so whats wrong?!

  P2P users will like it, though it seems a bit useless to me.
  
  It allows you to use different rendering machines, in case it doesn't load a page correctly. In simpler terms, it allows you to switch to either Firefox or IE without having them installed.
  
  It shows the percentage of a webpage being loaded. Useful, if you are staring at it.
  
  It has auto refresh, but it doesn't ever seem to work for me.

  Yes, it's just another browser.

  does their p2p work like limewire? If it works something like limewire, shouldn't there be lots of illegal downloaders who kena caught?

  Yeah...
  
  But as I said, it's pretty redundant. You are off better using the program itself than as an addon.
  
  And the program isn't illegal, it's just that whatever you are sharing are. With the exception of open-sourced files.
