Caching of IE pages and Prefetching them

[garcot]

Hi "~JaK~",

Thanks for your suggestion. I have tried CacheSentry, but it did not help fully. I have tweaked my Services->TCP/IP -> Parameters settings in the registry and the pages are getting loaded faster and better.

This tweak works well with 56K and above speeds.

What these settings have done is, it has reduced the DNS Resolving time and loading time of pages.

I am quite happy with the surfing speeds now. Yes I will try with CacheSentry
after I have tweaked Registry settings.
