Configuration of WDYLLC Slipstream Web Accerator on Mac OS X

The Slipstream accelerator is not available for Macintosh platforms
prior to OS X (10.0).  These instructions were distilled from other
sites that use SlipStream.

1. Download and Execute the installer

   The WDYLLC SlipStream Web Accelerator installer is available on the
   web at http://wdyllc.com/support/SlipStream-about.html. Note that
   you must provide your valid account username and password, and that
   you must be authorized to use WDY Enterprises' national dialup
   service to download the SlipStream client.

   Your download of the SlipStream client activates your account's
   ability to use the Web Acceleration service.  If your account does
   not download the SlipStream client directly (ie: if you get it from
   a friend), your account will not let you use the SlipStream client.

2. License Agreement

   WDY Enterprises didn't write this software. It's licensed software
   that you need to agree to specific terms to use.

   BE AWARE

   To install the software, you have to accept the terms of the
   agreement.

3. Follow the prompts

   The install process should be pretty routine.  Follow the on-screen
   prompts to install the WebAccelerator software.

4. Entering your authentication credentials

   The first time you use the Slipstream Web Accelerator, you'll see
   the User Information dialog box.  You'll need to enter your dialup
   username ("USERNAME@gcfn.org" format) and password, and then click
   Save and then click Continue.

5. Adding the Accelerator to your dock.

   By default, the installer does not put the SlipStream icon in your
   dock.  To add it to your dock, open the Applications folder, find
   the SlipStream icon, and drag it into your dock.


You can learn more about changing the Accelerator's behavior by
visiting http://wdyllc.com/support, and viewing the Windows SlipStream
support page.
