What's Asian and what isn't anymore?  Asian isn't the point.  The point is 
NVidia.

Usually when someone uses undocumented calls they're trying to do something 
they think is going to run faster than the documented calls.  Basically they 
think that Microsoft is "getting away" with using secret calls that makes 
their software load faster.  And truth be told, IE loads faster than any other 
browser, except maybe Opera.  

I don't know if MS is using secret calls to make their software run or load 
faster, but I found that sticking to what they've published seemed to work 
just fine for me.
