2. Error Message:
Does BasicISPHiSpeed support Internet Explorer?

Cause:
When BasicISPHiSpeed changes the HTTP proxy settings on the local computer, Safari will be automatically notified. However, proxy settings of Internet Explorer will not be changed automatically. As a result, IE continues to use the old settings.

Solution:
Please exit Internet Explorer then restart it if any of the following situations occur:
1. With BasicISPHISpeed enabled, you can not observe any accleration when using Internet Explorer
2. You can not browse with Internet Explorer after disabling BasicISPHiSpeed.

By terminating IE and then restarting it, IE is forced to re-read the HTTP proxy settings from the system preferences.
