Re: Netscape dial-up accelerated

The idea of having additional software running just for what should be a simple connection irks me.

Plus, with proxy, wouldn't there be issues with pages that are constituted of dynamic data (like discussion forums)?

Sorry cluster5 ... I should have clarified on the proxy part.

It sets itself up as a proxy in your browser settings (IE, Netscape, Firefox i know for sure). I dont think it acts like a traditional proxy, but in fact downloads the pages live as you request them.

I'm not 100% sure on how the server side of it works, as it isn't any of my responsibility, but I can find out if you want.

Netscape dial-up is AOL dial-up actually.. i would not even touch it with a stick plus the software is Windows only.
