thelittlefire Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 At best it screws up your settings.At WORST it's mal/ad/bad-ware. The only thing which increases your speeds beyond what's on this site... is getting a faster connection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alclarity Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Hi, new to the forums. I found this small app called uTorrent Turbo Booster (link: http://www.download-boosters.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=128)All I see on their website is marketing blabber. Does anybody know what exactly this app does to your PC and/or uTorrent client? How does it make anything faster beyond the constraints of your ISP's throughput limits if that is what you already get out of Torrenting.I'm just curious of the technical details, because it leads me to believe that every application they are selling on download-boosters.com is just a placebo that they make people pay for.Also im in 3rd year networking in IT and wanted to hear what the professionals have to say! If anyone can debate this, please move this into a separate thread especially if its in the wrong section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 TCP Optimizer...go GOOGLE that.Some of the "uTorrent booster" programs may do something like that, which might help slightly with high speed but high latency lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
