Hi,
I came across Active Speed and it's not freeware but it does, as they
say, speed up the Internet connection bt 375times...
I was wondering if anyone knows of a freeware software that would do a
similar thing?
Thanks to all!

Nothing is going to speed up an internet connection 375 times. I get
between 5-6 Mbs on a high speed cable connection which is faster than
most. I seriously doubt some piece of software is going to let a 56k
dialup modem connect at 21 Mbs. (Do the math)

As a general rule, internet optimizers tend to do about as much good
as aftermarket gasoline additives. About the only way to gain
significant "apparent" speed is through caching, which can give the
illusion of a speed increase if you regularly view the same web pages
and the content doesn't change much.

sorry I dont agree with most of these tweaks,

you will see little or no difference and its easy to mess up your computer,
creating more problems than solutions.

the best way to get more speed is to get a faster internet connection

an older OS like 98 ,usually by altering the rwin.However for xp etc i
wouldnt bother as its automated.You will probably get faster browsing by
tweaking the browser (im talking about firefox) rather than tcp settings.
