NetBooster: Optimize Internet Settings (Windows XP only)

To access:

From the Individual Tools pane, click Maximize Performance and then click Start next to Optimize Internet Settings.

What it does:

The Optimize Internet Settings "NetBooster" wizard tailors various Windows settings to suit your type of Internet connection. Adapting these settings boosts Web download rates and improves Internet and network speed.

Why use it:

When Windows is installed, the default settings are not necessarily optimized for your specific Internet connection. This can prevent you from reaching maximum download and upload speeds.

 

NetBooster allows the transferring of more data over your existing connection, resulting in faster and more reliable access.

The wizard has several screens to guide you through the process. Click a screen name below for more information:
