Version: OSS Internet Speed Booster 3.0
"It's No Good, Just Like Muni."
Pros: I has a fairly quick RAM booster.
Cons: This application left me baffled, as 2/3 of the options are useless. All the "System settings" option does is show you what is in your computer, which is fine, I guess, if you don't know how to find your computer properties or open your control panel. You won't be comfortable using it's "Speed Booster" option unless you really understand how TCP/IP, RWIN, MTU, MSS, TLL, work together and why you should now be so worried about SYN Flood Attacks. (WHAT?!)Admittedly, I'm no network genius and therefore sought support by opening the "Help" section. It does exist, however merely displays shots of what the application looks like when you open it. There are no actual explainations,instructions, or even definitions! Talk about being el' weirdo, this software wins the gold!

Version: OSS Internet Speed Booster 3.0
"Worthless for Broadband Internet Users!"
Pros: Does speed up the Internet by somewhat 10% only.
Cons: Worthless for Broadband Internet users. Slows down PC after uninstallation plus leads to slower Internet access. Even reinstallation or System Restore on Windows XP will not help u get back ur original Internet speed. In my case, it was DSL 256 kb/s. The pinging kept on deteriorating & additionally, the speed also suffered tremendously. Nevertheless, the only solution to these Speed Booster type programs is a backup & format of the entire system otherwise you'll remain hooked to slow Internet connection & this software will never get removed from the System Registry as it is an Adware & Spyware. So, not even an Anti-Spyware or Anti-Virus software would be able to delete this software completely. So, beware!
