    • On some Windows platforms a bubble icon will appear when the SlipStream Service has been established. On all other Windows platforms, you can verify that SlipStream Service has been established by hovering over the SlipStream tray icon (you should see a "SlipStream Service Enabled..." message).

    • Browse the web or download email as you normally would.
    • Your web access or email access will be automatically accelerated by SlipStream Web Accelerator.
