Hm, I'm a bit curious what the TCP optimizer actually does, as a friend of mine says you should never alter the TCP stack. Thats what the old AOL software used to do isn't it? Forcing people to reinstall windows if ever they wanted to go to a different ISP.

Could someone clarify what the TCP optimizer actually does?
