I assume you use a regular dial-up connection (via phone lines)? What was your best download speed before and after this utility? I tried Download Demon from McAfee for a while. It made a difference of about 2 Kbps, from about 4.8 Kbps to 6.9 Kbps (once I got a whopping 9.0 at 3:30 AM P.S.T.). Not worth the annoying banner ads that popped up whenever I downloaded something. I think cable or ADSL is probably cheap enough now, leaving little reason not to subscribe. Anyone know if Rogers (Vancouver area) still offers a reasonable service? <ecnsrn@speedyinternet.com> wrote in message news:2GT55.92991$m5.59849@typhoon.kc.rr.com... > Hey, > Sign up at Netsetter (for free!), and it will install some free software that will speed up you Internet connection by 100%!
