( Tips n' Tricks ) Reducing Data Transfer while Surfing

[abhishekkulkarni]

This one is for the extreme downloaders , Net junkies who want to save their transfers to the maximum extent.
Prevent all multimedia items like images,sounds,animations,videos,flash objects etc... from being displayed by just unchecking everything here -

Internet Options -> Advanced -> Multimedia.


But believe me this alone cuts down Data transfer by 80%.Because only the text is displayed which is of a negligible size ( KBytes ).

However it is difficult to adjust to pages without those familiar buttons & images and it takes a lot of time.But then our purpose of reducing data transfer is served to the fullest extent.
