Debugging asp.net websites/web projects in visual studio.net 2005 with Firefox is loads slower than using IE.

I’ve read something somewhere that there is a way of fixing this but i can’t for the life of me find it again.

Does anyone know what i’m on about and can point me in the right direction please?

Cheers John

edit

sorry rob i haven’t explained myself very well(again). I prefer Firefox for debugging (firebug etc)

hitting F5 when debugging with IE the browser launches really quickly and clicking around my web application is almost instant and when a breakpont is hit i get to my code straight away with no delays.

hitting F5 when debugging with FireFox the browser launches really slowly (ok i have plugins that slow FF loading) but clicking around my web application is really really slow and when a breakpoint is hit it takes ages to break into code.

i swear i’ve read something somewhere that there is a setting in Firefox (about:config maybe?) that when changed to some magic setting sorts all this out.

    bingo. found the article i read before.

    i just changed my network.dns.ipv4OnlyDomains property in about:config to localhost. restarted firefox and now firefox performs the same as IE when debugging asp.net with visual studio (2005).

    hope this helps anyone else that has the same problem.
