This is from my Kim Komando newsletter:
Unlike most accelerators, this program is for broadband users.
Accelerators work a few ways, and they won't speed up seeing all Web pages. Google Web Accelerator does the following:
*
Sends your page requests through Google machines dedicated to handling Google Web Accelerator traffic.
*
Stores copies of frequently looked at pages to make them quickly accessible.
*
Downloads only the updates if a web page has changed slightly since you last viewed it.
*
Prefetches certain pages onto your computer in advance.
*
Manages your Internet connection to reduce delays.
*
Compresses data before sending it to your computer.
Cost: Free
