Surely its your ISP that determines your connection speed?

Errr Mojo.
If it made optimisations at your end, it wouldn't need to be a seperate program. You'd just make the changes, and they'd stay changed.
I'd be extremely sceptical about using this.

No no, it's nothing like that. It just optimizes a few registry settings.
Latency does not relate to bandwidth.
As an extreme, oft-used example, think of the bandwidth of a station-wagon filled with backup tapes. It can transfer terabytes per hour, but the latency sucks.
You're unlikely to improve the latency of a dialup modem or similar with just a few registry tweaks, it's mainly a hardware issue. You can probably get an improvement by switching off compression at both a protocol and a hardware level, but while that may reduce the latency it will make tasks like web-browsing much slower - a modem can significantly compress repetitive data like HTML and similar.
These 'bandwidth-boosters' are generally a bit of a con, and they remind me a lot of the 'memory-doubler' programs from a few years ago. There's often little room for improvement anyway, and you're better off getting a better connection...
