If you are using dial-up then you can get DAP which does help a little on downloads - but only minimally.  You can try changing your settings a little but what you change will depend on what you have.  No matter what you do don't expect any kind of major difference plus a lot of the so-called accelerators also carry spyware.  If your ISP offers a web accelerator and you are dial-up, it is worth the extra few dollars, kopecs, whatever per month for surfing.  Uploads and downloads are not helped.

most all of the dialup providers have software of some sort to acceperte your surfing, check with them, some offer it free, some will charge you for it

Wireless is just as fast for internet browsing, since most high-speed connections are well under the wireless bandwidth.\n\nHowever, to transfer files from PC to PC or run streaming video, wired is much faster and definitely preferred.

a browser is what you use to surf the net. the two most common are internet explorer and mozila firefox. many people get problems with IE. firefox however is faster and more customisable

It is possible to surf if nearsighted. It is an advantage to be able to clearly see the wave coming in and determine where and how it is going to break. I am near sighted and wear contacts when I surf. I wear disposable contacts. The contacts fit well and I have never lost a contact while surfing. I even wear my contacts while swimming. You usually don't have your eyes open when underwater.

if u are just thinking of surfing ( mind this thou... it rarely is just surfing, u get sucked into so much more, whatever) i`d have to say a cheap way to resolve that would be with celeron procesor, it is not expensive and have a very good processing quality for those purposes, however i recomend pentium 4 with hyperthreading tecnology, mainly because web pages are increaingly becoming enriched with more media every day, like flash animations for example.

Well, I prefer Internet Explorer, but if those were my only choices then MSN. It is much more user friendly and has more to it.

Playing games uses more of your computer's memory than just surfing.  It can overload your computer.  When's the last time you defragmented your computer?  That might help.

My work is very lax about this, so I can surf around. I think most everyone will tolerate a little bit of non-work related browsing, but it is true, you should limit it. I would generally use my co-workers as a reference point to know exactly how much is ok.

it means there is a single explorer window, but with tabs (like a file folder in paper) that have different websites open in each.\n\nthis way you can have several websites open simultaneously, but all in the same window.\n\nlike AOL explorer.\n\nits very useful.

Typically, BROWSING is what happens when you jump from one site to another, reading content or looking at pictures. In normal browsing, limited content is downloaded to your computer - usually in the Temporary Internet Files area or into a cache, depending on your browser. This is used to speed up pages that you visit frequently. You can set up most browsers to delete these temporary files on a regular basis, or to even delete them whenever you exit out of the browser.\n\nNow DOWNLOADING is what happens when you intentionally (and sometimes accidentally) request for a file to be sent to your computer for permanent storage. Normally, you have to click on a link/button that starts the download process and then you are given the option on your end to either save the file in a certain location or open the file after all of it has been received.\n\nRecently, ad-ware and spy-ware programs will install and download content by tricking you (an ad saying "click here to scan your computer for viruses" and such). Some less-than-scrupulous adult sites have begun to use this same technology. It would be wise to explain to someone what happened on your computer and have them go through your hard drive with a fine-toothed comb to make sure none of the content you came across was saved in the dark recesses of the computer.

If you provider has upload/download limits, you will never exceed them by just websurfing. Limits are imposed for people that say use file-sharing programs or who try to host a server for people to get files from them or hosting a game server. If your just surfing which I think your doing, you will never reach your limits. Enjoy!

You simply browsing the internet makes the temporary files.  Your computer saves the files to your hard drive to speed up the browsing process.  They aren't problems, so you don't need to worry.
