Web Accelerator is a feature offered on some Dial-Up plans. The service works by compressing text and images which in turn makes web pages load faster. An ISP's Web Accelerator feature can increase a web page's loading speed to five times faster than the page loading speed of their standard Dial-Up plan.
Not everything gets accelerated. Parts that get accelerated include HTML, JavaScript, images, text, and webmail. Parts that don't get accelerated include streaming video or audio, secure pages (ex. shopping carts), and attachments such as video, audio or image files.
A Dial-Up plan with Web Accelerator would be ideal for someone who does a lot of page surfing, but doesn't access a great deal of streaming files or doesn't download very many video or audio files. For webmasters, Web Accelerator won't increase the speed of which you are able to upload or download files with your FTP programs.
MyProxy is a popular Internet application that combines properties of a proxy server, pop-up/banner ad filter, dialer and DNS-cache. The program can increase the web page loading speeds up to five times by blocking unwanted online ads and caching pictures and website graphics elements, which account for the majority of the Internet traffic. In addition, MyProxy blocks cookies and referrers, which are used by marketers to invade privacy and track person's online behavior, preferences, most visited websites, frequency of visits and so on.
MyProxy does an extremely good job of discerning advertising and pornographic content to block it from reaching your computer. Doing this, the program saves a significant amount of money in bandwidth fees and makes Internet surfing experience more enjoyable. Importantly, MyProxy allows sharing the Internet connection with other computers in the network. MyProxy stores a local table of DNS-IP addresses and checks that table before querying ISP, which permits local searching without generating TCP/IP network traffic at all.
Moreover, MyProxy also features a built-in dialer capable of tracking time spent in the Internet and bandwidth consumed to help you calculate your expenses. And the program comes with a password protection to prevent unauthorized access.
MyProxy is distributed electronically over the Internet; free 30-day trial version is available at for evaluation.
The price of a single copy is 24.95 US Dollars. The program comes with an unconditional 30-day money back guarantee.
