Web Accelerator

We are pleased to announce the release of our web accelerator. This product uses server side compression and cache technology to reduce the size of pages before they reach your computer and decrease the time it takes for you to view websites. It also has a built-in Pop-up blocker.

The software accelerates HTML, Javascript, JPEG, GIFS, BMPS, Text and Email. It does not accelerate streaming media, secure websites, file attachments, digital music and digital photos.

This makes your dial-up connection seem like you are surfing at up to 5x the speed of a typical 56k connection.

How does it work?

It uses state of the art data compression
My Family Explorer Web Accelarator servers keep copies of frequently visited web pages handy
It uses a customized proprietary transport protocol
Launch the hyper-accelerated My Family Explorer Web Accelarator software on your desktop and enjoy surfing!
