I’ve always had a sneaking suspicion that Google and Microsoft were in bed together, (though, not necessarily nekkid), because Google has never seen fit to port their toolbar over to the Mozilla platform.

Google has implemented a cool feature that only Mozilla browsers (don’t know about Opera) can take advantage of—prefetching search results. When you perform a search Google preloads some of the pages so that when you click on the link the page appears faster.

What is link prefetching?
Link prefetching is a browser mechanism, which utilizes browser idle time to download or prefetch documents that the user might visit in the near future. A web page provides a set of prefetching hints to the browser, and after the browser is finished loading the page, it begins silently prefetching specified documents and stores them in its cache. When the user visits one of the prefetched documents, it can be served up quickly out of the browser’s cache.
