ok I'm not going to say how to do it but if you know what I'm talking about more than likely you can answer my question. By request more than one time on websites "pipelining" will sites ban your IP etc...? Its suppose to speed up your internet but I'm not so sure sites want you to do it....

What kind of question is "Is it legal"? If your real question was in your post, then the thread title makes absolutely no sense at all.

But regarding the question of the two that isn't completel retarded, I have yet to see a single site that reacts to it - and I've been using it since Firefox 0.5 or so

The e-police are gonna bust down your door and throw you into Federal PMITA prison!

There's nothing wrong with it at all.

You're breaking http standards.. whether or not that's important to you is up to you. It's certainly not illegal.

Yes, it's legal.

And most sites shouldn't care about the number of connections you make to their server no matter the method...

Thankfully the firewall package on my OS of choice lets me limit the number of connections coming from a host in a particular timeframe. :evil:

theres an extension called FasterFox that automatically tweak firefox. I've gotten speeds of 800kb/s when my normal bandwidth limit is 250 kb/s.
