For your convenience, Rapid IE’s Startup preferences will
be checked or activated to Enable
DNS Caching. Having this item checked means that
Rapid IE will get smarter every time your surf the web.
Here's How:
Did you know that every website (such as
www.yahoo.com) has a corresponding
number, similar to a phone number, attached to it? (This is
technically called an IP address.) IP addresses exist because just
think how hard it would be for us to remember 122.448.899.90
is the number for Yahoo?
On the flip side this means that every time you type in
www.yahoo.com, your browser
has to "dial up" the website and ask for the
correct "phone number". Rapid IE is different in that
it remembers these numbers every time you call and saves them
in a virtual address book. This means less time wasted on
"dialing" and less time for a website to load!
What’s more, websites, like people sometimes move and change
addresses. Rapid IE is constantly monitoring these and
updating its address book.
Automatically enabling this
technology, called DNS Caching, will accelerate your surfing.
To make this feature inactive, simply
uncheck the box labelled Enable DNS Caching.
To get rid of the "numbers" stored in your
"virtual address book", click on the link
Empty DNS Cache.
