NetSonic Pro is an advanced version of the award-winning NetSonic Internet Accelerator. It includes all of the speed-increasing and intelligent-caching capabilities of NetSonic, PLUS the following new features:

 
Maximum Transfer Unit (MTU) Optimizer

- DESCRIPTION -
NetSonic™ Pro allows you to adjust your Internet access settings by dynamically configuring your Max Transfer Units, packet size, receive window and other settings to take full advantage of your connection to the web (modem, network, ISDN, T1, etc.).

- BENEFIT -
By optimizing your Internet connection mode, NetSonic™ Pro dramatically accelerates your access to the web.

- TYPICAL USER -
Everyone benefits from this feature! The MTU Optimizer speeds up every connection to every site, not just dial-up networking connections. This dramatically enhances your productivity by speeding up your email. It works the first time you access a site, and every subsequent time. It even speeds up file transfers! You could purchase a separate MTU optimizer for up to $29.95, but why? NetSonic™ Pro offers you the benefit of having two products in one.

ACCELERATION MODES:

Maximum acceleration

- DESCRIPTION -
This is the mode you are familiar with from the standard product, NetSonic v1.01. Pages will be displayed from the cache and you will be alerted if the page has changed. To view the changes you hit Refresh or Reload -- you are totally in control.

NetSonic™ Pro now offers you two advanced acceleration choices:

Auto-refresh (maximum acceleration)

- DESCRIPTION -
NetSonic™ Pro’s SonicCache™ serves you the requested page while it checks in the background for updated information. As soon as the cache is updated with the newest information, NetSonic™ Pro automatically refreshes the page.

- BENEFIT -
NetSonic™ Pro immediately displays the page you want. If the site has been changed, NetSonic™ Pro auto-refreshes the page, so that you do not have to manually refresh the page in order to view the most recent information.

- TYPICAL USER -
If you need the highest speed available today, then this is your option of choice! You would also benefit from this acceleration mode if the information on the sites that you visit doesn’t change constantly.

Watch for our full review in a few weeks right here by our Mid-Western Correspondent; Frank Sereno.  He'll put this puppy through its paces.  We are running it here and have seen an improvement in the performance of IE5.  But in all honesty not that much since we are running a T1 at this location.

Smart acceleration

- DESCRIPTION -
When accessing a previously visited page, NetSonic™ Pro will verify with the Internet that the cache contains the most recent information while saving over 50% of the download time!

- BENEFIT -
Never look at another stale web page! Instead of viewing a possibly outdated web page from the cache, NetSonic™ Pro only serves you the requested page when it has determined that the page is current. This acceleration mode guarantees that you’ll always receive only the latest information with no manual intervention required.

- TYPICAL USER -
Do the sites you visit have constantly changing information? Then this is the acceleration mode for you!

Prefetch graphics / Prefetch off site

- DESCRIPTION -
NetSonic™ Pro’s SonicFetch™ technology will pre-load links from the current site you are viewing, including both graphics and text, plus it will also pre-load links to other sites. By pre-loading images along with the HTML and text, NetSonic™ Pro offers true maximum acceleration of pre-loaded sites.

- BENEFIT -
If you click on a link, both the graphics and text of the new page will be immediately available with no waiting required.

- TYPICAL USER -
Do you want both the graphics and text available when you click on a link? Then this is a feature you’ll appreciate.

Off-line mode

 

- DESCRIPTION -
NetSonic™ Pro gives you the option of visiting previously viewed sites from the cache without being connected to the web - no annoying "connection required" box will appear.

- BENEFIT -
Even when you’re offline, NetSonic™ Pro offers you the ability to surf your favorite sites!

- TYPICAL USER -
If you are a frequent traveler, and don’t always have access to the Net, then this is the feature for you!

Customized cache location

- DESCRIPTION -
You can install NetSonic™ Pro in one location, and locate the cache someplace else.

- BENEFIT -
This feature allows you to create a folder for your cache on a secondary drive or even on the network drive, keeping your main drive free of bulky cache files.

- TYPICAL USER -
If you have multiple drives, you would receive major benefits using this feature. Locate your cache on a fast hard drive and you will be amazed at the faster access!

Site exclusion

- DESCRIPTION -
NetSonic™ Pro offers you a mechanism for specifying which sites you don't want to be cached or accelerated.

- BENEFIT -
If you use web mail (i.e. hotmail.com), this feature will ensure that you’ll always see your most current mail, instead of viewing your old in-box.

- TYPICAL USER -
This feature offers you an alternative to smart acceleration mode. If there are a few sites that you visit which have rapidly changing information, you can simply exclude them from being cached, thereby ensuring you’ll always receive the most up-to-date information.

Always Start Enabled

- DESCRIPTION -
NetSonic™ Pro will start with Acceleration enabled every time you restart your system, even if Acceleration was disabled when you previously shut down Windows.

- BENEFIT -
Now you will consistently have the benefit of NetSonic™ Pro while surfing the web, even if you have to reboot your system.

- TYPICAL USER -
Everyone benefits from this feature, because it guarantees that NetSonic™ Pro will always be ready for you to use.

Save Pre-load cache files

- DESCRIPTION -
Normally, pre-loaded sites that you have not actually visited are discarded from your cache when NetSonic closes. This mode saves the pre-loaded pages along with the standard cache files.

- BENEFIT -
Sometimes you may want to view the pre-loaded sites, but just don't have time. This feature lets you return later to view the pre loaded pages. You can use your laptop at work, take it home, continue surfing and you do not have to re-fetch those pages. The pre-loaded pages that are never viewed will be the first pages removed from the cache once the cache size limit is reached.

- TYPICAL USER -
This feature will benefit anyone, because NetSonic™ Pro insures that the Web information is ready whenever you are. Don’t waste your bandwidth with repeated requests for the same information! With NetSonic™ Pro, you can surf, stop, then continue at a later time, without losing precious data.

Cache Meter

- DESCRIPTION -
This feature graphically displays the status of your cache.

- BENEFIT -
With NetSonic™ Pro, you’ll never have to wonder how much space is left in your cache!

- TYPICAL USER -
Everyone benefits from this feature, since it allows you to keep tabs on your cache.
