NetSonic 1.0 (Web 3000)
File size: 804K
License: Free
NetSonic accelerates your Internet browsing by quickly loading previously visited Web pages, which it stores in its IntelliCache. When you revisit a Web page, instead of staring at a blank screen waiting for text files and images to download over the Internet, NetSonic displays the requested Web page instantaneously from its own cache. If a Web page has changed since your last visit, you will hear a beep, and your cursor will change briefly to the NetSonic Jet icon. To display the updated Web page, simply hit your browser's Refresh or Reload button. (Requirements: Windows 95; Netscape Navigator 3.0, Internet Explorer 3.0, AOL 3.0, CompuServe 3.02, or Opera 3.10)
