We all take the Internet for granted nowadays but what your computer has to do to allow you to surf is actually amazingly complicated. Windows has a long list of settings for tuning the performance of your Internet connection. That’s fine if you’re a computer expert, the rest of us will generally make things worse rather than better – if we can find all the well-hidden settings in the first place.
Ashampoo Internet Accelerator analyzes your computer and optimizes all the relevant settings with a single click. You don’t need to know anything, just select the automatic optimizer and you’re done. The new version also includes an Internet connection speed test tool so you can test your performance directly.
In addition to automatic optimization advanced users can still access all the individual settings and adjust them manually.
Easier to use, plus new tools and settings:
We’ve redesigned the layout, making the program even easier to use. Everything is explained directly, you’ll probably never have to refer to the help. In addition to this we’ve also added a set of new tools and features for managing your Internet connection.
Boost and configure Internet Explorer and Firefox
Internet Explorer and Firefox are the two most popular browsers and you can now configure them and boost their performance right from internet Accelerator. In addition to performance-enhancing settings you also get direct access to a large number of useful browser settings, all in one place.
Internet Cleaner tool
Your browser saves a record of everything you do and every page you visit. The new Internet Cleaner tool lets you quickly delete your complete surfing trail, with separate settings for Internet Explorer, Firefox and Opera.
Hosts File Checker
Your computer’s “Hosts” file lists the location of known Internet sites and is always checked first for the address when you access a site. Spyware and other malicious programs can use it to redirect you to fake and dangerous sites – the new Hosts File Checker makes sure this isn’t happening.
Interactive checking for key parameters
In addition to optimizing your access speed Internet Accelerator can also interactively check some advanced parameters on your live connection to work out the best settings. You don’t have to use this feature, but it’s there if you want it.
New Features:
- Intuitive new layout – everything explains itself
- Boost and configure Internet Explorer and Firefox
- Internet Cleaner – quickly erase your surfing trail
- Hosts File Checker – stop spyware redirecting you
- Interactive auto-check for key Internet access settings
