WebOptimizer3000
WebOptimizer3000 (WO3K) optimizes the way your Windows PC can send and receive information across the Internet. By default, Windows does not handle incoming and outgoing data as optimally as possible. You could say that Windows is truly the slowest link in the chain. WO3K tweaks the Windows Registry, changing the values of MTU, TcpOpts, Rwin, DefaultTTL, TcpSackOpts, PMTUBlack Hole Detect, and PMTU Discovery. The program gives the option of restoring default settings to the Registry to insure system protection. This trial version is a 14-day trial. Please REGISTER your copy through www.weboptimizer3000.com Our Review: WebOptimizer 'optimizes' your internet connection by making some tweaks to the system settings within your registry. Operation is simple - just specify your operating system and your connection speed and then WebOptimizer will do the rest. A little unnerving in that it provides no feedback except to tell you to restart, but luckily it does provide an option to restore Windows default settings should you be unsatisfied with the changes. The claim in the docs is that this program can offer up to a 500% performance increase - maybe a nice feature in the next release would be a comparison with your original settings to qualify this claim?
