Publisher's description of Throttle 4.0
From PGWARE:Throttle modifies your modem to increase Internet speed. No modifications to your hardware are made and all adjustments and settings are done in an easy to use interface that a child could use. Most other modem enhancers promise that they work while you notice no difference at all in internet speed. Throttle on the other hand has been tried and tested and proven to work. Whether you use a 14.4/28.8/33.6/56k modem, cable modem, or dsl modem, Throttle will boost your internet connection speed. Notice also that Throttle will modify your modem settings to handle those annoying disconnections and hangups so they happen less often.

Version: Throttle 4.0
"Better than most I have tried"
Pros: I have in the last few months tried so many accelerators, that I got so frustrated waiting, and waiting for pages to laod one night I even sat and watched tv for 15 minuts and the busy bar was only half ways through finding the website I wanted to load and it was another 15 minutes before it even loaded.
I really like this one, and I ended up buying it today.
Over all this product is better than most, besides I also have a memory optimizer and it improves it even more.
Cons: I can't say anything bad about it cause I hav'nt found anything bad about it yet.Its just a really good product.Again I don't have anything bad to say like I said before.
I base what I download from the opions of people of download.com and zdnet.

Version: Throttle 4.0
Summary: It boosted up my dial-up connection from 3.5 up to 6.5 average. I think those who have said "it sucks" their systems aren't at max performance. I have my computer tweaked with programs and stuff and it worked so much.
