Patent-pending acceleration
technology combines multiple
proven acceleration methods to
provide more speed and options.
Internet Accelerator employs a
variety of technologies to move
web pages over the internet more
quickly, all of which require no
changes from the users or ISPs.
Customers see nothing but
improvement using the same ISP,
equipment, and browser as
before. Most of Internet
Accelerator's technology is
proprietary and many of the
speed-enhancement details are
confidential. However, here are
the basic key elements...
Outlook
Technology has partnered
with a company that
deployed proxy servers
on the Internet Backbone
in North America,
Western Europe, Central
and South America and in
Asia Pacific. The
network is redundant and
fault-tolerant with
automatic geographical
load balancing among the
servers.
The proxy servers and
Accelerator software use
proprietary data
compression technology
that is far more
effective than the
normal compression
technology based on
public standards.
The
Internet Accelerator's
state-of-the-art
compression technology
compresses text data up
to 10x and image data up
to 3x, far higher than
public standards.
Our multi-point caching
mechanism further speeds
downloading of graphics
and static files.
On average, DNS lookup
on our servers is much
faster, given the
proximity of our
computers to the DNS
servers.
Conversion of GIF image
files to JPEG lowers the
amount of data on a Web
page (GIF files tend to
be larger).
Persistent connections
to our servers eliminate
frequent creation of TCP
connections.
Suppression of banner
ads saves additional
bandwidth needs.
Prevention of annoying
pop-up ads before they
reach the desktop
reduces download time
and also increases
privacy (many pop-ups
contain cookies).
The
Internet Accelerator's
Pop-up Removal feature
blocks pop-ups, pop-unders
and exit windows, while
allowing for
'legitimate' pop-ups.
Blocking of web "bugs"
that are used by
advertisers to track
Internet users will
further protect your
privacy.
Internet Accelerator
provides broad compatibility
Our Internet Accelerator is

ME, XP, NT or 2000), Internet
