Author [O--T] Web Compressor for DSL or Cable?

I use a program called "Netscape Accelerator" for my 56K dialup
connection. This program / compressor squashes the images before
sending them over the wires, and it makes a HUGE difference (about 8
times faster for an effective throughput of ~400 kbps over a
phoneline).

I'd like to see if I can get something like that to speed-up my
brother's DSL connection. Does such a thing exist for hi-speed
internet?

thanks :-)
