Specifically, Propel Accelerator speeds up
the delivery of Web pages four ways:
- Optional Content Filtering. Propel
Accelerator lets you block unsolicited content, such as pop-up ads and in page
ads, which contributes to long wait times.
- Compression. Propel Accelerator delivers text
and graphics more efficiently, using a proprietary compression technology that
significantly reduces the size of Web pages and page elements sent to your
browser.
- Caching. Propel Accelerator improves upon
your browser's caching ability. Propel intelligently retains and reuses Web
pages and page elements that have previously been sent to your PC. That's why
the longer Propel Accelerator is in use on your PC, the faster your Web pages
will load.
- Persistent Connections. Propel Accelerator
uses proprietary techniques to carefully manage and optimize the communication
between your modem and our network of servers through a persistent connection.
This eliminates the time wasted re-establishing and closing TCP/IP connections.
