Moderators Andavari Posted April 3, 2006 Moderators Share Posted April 3, 2006 I tried it one or two years ago, however since I didn't notice any improvements I undid the changes and deleted the app. Seems these type of apps don't necessarily benefit WinXP that much as I tried several with no noticable improvements, and many people say they don't work at all. However; I will say this though when I was an AOL dialup user many years ago I used a similiar minded app that changed my download speeds from 3 kbps max to around 5 kbps max. But the biggest speed improvement is achieved by blocking ad banners! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
