What is YHTI Accelerator?

It's the fastest Web Accelerator on the market!
If you surf the Internet using a dial-up connection, you are painfully aware of how slow Web pages load. YHTI Accelerator allows you to dramatically increase your surfing speed. Pages that previously took almost 30 seconds to load, can now be viewed in less than 7 seconds, on average, and sometimes even faster.

How much does it cost?
Every Unlimited Dial-Up account can be upgraded to the Accelerated Dial-Up plan for only $1 more per month. This means, for $20.95 a month you can enjoy all the benefits of Unlimited Dial-Up service but with a browsing experience that is up to
*5x faster. We are so confident that you will love the service that we will upgrade your account for free for 30 days. With the free upgrade, you pay only for the normal Unlimited Dial-Up Service but receive the Accelerated Service for your first 30 days at no additional charge. If you are not fully satisfied, just notify us within the first 30 days, from the date of activation, and you will not be charged for the accelerated service you received during your free upgrade period.

How does it work?
YHTI Accelerator is designed to provide maximum acceleration for the Web sites you visit regularly. So, the more you surf, the faster your favorite pages will load!
YHTI Accelerator speeds up the delivery of Web pages five ways:
- Compression Images and other graphic objects are compressed by removing some of the image detail. This results in dramatically smaller images that are delivered to your computer much quicker. You may set your own default level of graphic compression through the YHTY Accelerator Icon Menu. You may also right click on any image or Web page and select the menu item to refresh in the image or Web page in full quality.
- Caching YHTI Accelerator intelligently retains and reuses Web pages and page elements that have previously been sent to your desktop.
- Persistent Connections YHTI Accelerator optimizes the communication between your modem and our network of servers. This eliminates the time wasted re-establishing and closing TCP/IP connections.
- Chunk Encoding with Parallel Connections When a user begins to download a file larger than 100KB, this feature downloads different segments of the same file from different locations.
- Optional Content Filtering YHTI Accelerator lets you block unsolicited content, such as pop-up ads and in-page ads. Blocking these ads causes Web pages to load faster.
    Pop-up Windows (Windows Only). YHTI Accelerator can block pop-up and pop-under windows that clutter your screen and slow down your surfing.
    In-page Ads YHTI Accelerator can block most advertisements that appear on Web pages. When an ad is blocked, it is replaced with a light gray box on the Web page to make sure that Web pages maintain their intended design. You can easily view blocked ads by right clicking on the gray box. As with pop-up blocking, you can turn this feature on and off any time you like.


















How fast is it?
With YHTI Accelerator, Web pages load an average of 3 to 5 times faster. The more regularly you visit specific Web sites, the better the performance you will receive.

Here is an example of tests we ran with and without YHTI Accelerator.
