The contact email for the program Faster 1.0 for OS/2 has been changed.
It was
    oscar.chang@rahul.net .
It has been changed to
    oscarc@divideby0.com .

I've reuploaded the program to hobbes.nmsu.edu and ftp.cdrom.com. You can also
get them at http://www.divideby0.com/programs.html

  What is Faster?

Faster is designed to make your web pages load up...well faster. :) 

It's done by adding the WIDTH and HEIGHT components to the IMG tag. 

By doing this, a graphical web browser will know the width and height of an
image, put a  place holder there, and continue loading the page.  This makes
the page load faster because the browser will know the size of the image
without  loading  the  actual  graphics file.
