Software would never replace professional optimization, liket weating the recieve windows perfectly and adjusting QoS etc. Software don't always work for people because they have preset averages for users, and some people won't see any change. They can mess up and slow down your system too if you're not careful though.

1) Your signature is 2 wide, and it bugs me, change it
2) I'll diss whomever or whatever i want.
3) There software IS poo, but just "may be"
4) AOL with a router is still AOL, just like Speckle or Jamis with new names are still themselves and eventually get discovered
5) Your 1meg aol broadband is probably about as fast as my 56k dialup, and unless your 2meg friend is speed limited (too much downloading) or to far away from the exchange that he is actually on 512k or jsut about 1meg himself, then your aol broiadband is NOT faster, and your probably testing unfairly.

HO, just use a tweak program like TuneUP to do the basic tweaks and stuff. ADSLguide.co.uk is a good website to get tweak info from ^_^

Or just get a computer education on the internet and networking etc and do all the tweeking up by urselfs, hlps a lot u know, saves trouble searching through pointless crap that doesn't actually work lol.

but if u wanna speed up ur download, change and fiddle with ur setting manually, or download 1 of the good download managers lol.

e.g. FlashGet or HiDownload

FG = x5 Download speed
HD = x10 Download speed

Thats what they surposadly give, i personally haven't seen a different when i used em lol

ok ok ok.. yeh i was just proving a point though aol where i am is much better than most other providers e.g speed is ok. the d/c isnt that bad the service has never ever been down longer than 5 seconds. its not that bad and sonic them progs dont boost the speed of any of my downloads easyer its just a safer way i think.

I use flashget but it deffinately doesnt give X5 speed because then i would be downloading at around 650KBps on a 1 meg line which is impossible.
