Google Web Accelerator Re-open For Download

Web Accelerator
I have just mentioned one of the Google free service, Google Web Accelerator, in the comment of previous post. Coincidentally, Google Web Accelerator has silently re-open for download after more than 4 month of shutting down the download link due to the reach of their maximum capacity of users.

As I have mentioned 2 months ago, Google Web Accelerator started giving out free download since the beginning of May 2005, somehow stopped accepting new users in less than a month time. Now after almost 4 months, Google once again starts accepting new users. You better be quick, otherwise who knows they will shut down the download link again soon.

Just in case you do not know what actually is Google Web Accelerator, basically it is an application that helps to speed up your broadband connection by sending your connection requests through some speed optimizing processes on Google servers, then send back the requests to you.

Please be noted that, this free service is only designed for broadband users, dial-up connection might not see any speed difference. Besides, it now supports only Internet Explorer 5.5+ or Firefox 1.0+ browsers.

Again, the privacy issue came into my mind, as more and more data is sending to Google’s servers via this free service and the latest free Google Secure Access VPN service. Will Google be analyzing our surfing behaviour?

Anyway, before you start download Google Web Accelerator, don’t forget to read their Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy.
