    Is this similar to what dial-up providers like AOL and MSN offer-you know, those web "accelerators"?

    I esp. hated AOL's system-they compress the images in the integrated IE browser into their proprietary .art file format, making them look like fuzzy, smeared crap. Also, this doesn't change things like file download speeds which remain dog slow!
