Looks like I am a bit late but you do not need to uninstall Fasterfox it has various configuration options & some presets.

Selecting Courteous as a preset still helps the client a little by doing some minor rendering tweaks to speed up the client front end, this setting does not do any prefetching so does not add load to any webservers and also removes the potential for yoru isp / proxy to be logging you as visiting sites you didnt.

Word of warning though, default is american so it flags up correct spelling as wrong if you use proper english.
