Well I edited 3 files to completly disable IPv6 :
1. Added "net.ipv6.conf.all.autoconf=0" to /etc/sysctl.conf
2. Added "alias net-pf-10 off" & "alias ipv6 off" to /etc/modprobe.conf
3. In FF, openned a new tab, type "about:config" then modify
"network.dns.disableIPv6" in "true"
And I found FF 1.5 responding visibly faster on more than half of the
sites, e.g. half a second to see Welcome (Google Firefox) page in place of
1.5 seconds.
Hope you can get it faster !
