What is ICOMACC?What gets accelerated?ICOM accelerator (ICOMACC) compresses the following elements of web pages and email in order to send the information to your computer faster: Web pages - HTML markup and Javascript Graphics including JPEG and GIF images Text Passive FTP E-mail - SMTP, POP, IMAP (including file attachments!) What will not be accelerated?Although ICOMACC is able to compress many different types of online data, there are a few which cannot be accelerated: Streaming media, audio and video files Secure pages, such as those used for online banking and credit card forms How does it work?With traditional dial-up methods, the text and graphics that make up web pages get sent from the server to you over your phone line. Because of the large amount of data required to be sent, this process can be painfully slow. ICOMACC compresses this data using a proprietary technology, and sends it over your existing dialup phone line. This compression process allows a smaller amount data to be sent - up to seven times less - making the download time of your web pages and your online experience that much faster. As an added download time reducer, ICOMACC stores elements of the web sites you visit frequently eliminating the need to re-download them every time you visit these sites.
