Web Accelerator: Closed!
Google has shut down the download site for its Web Accelerator, saying the beta is full.
From the Google Web Accelerator website:
Thank you for your interest in Google Web Accelerator.
We have currently reached our maximum capacity of users and are actively working to increase the number of users we can support.
Still want in? I’m sure someone will put a copy of the download online.

UPDATE: Eh, too easy. The download page is still up:
Man, if I can figure it out, it is too easy. Be warned, it will try to download as soon as the page loads.
Ah shucks! I was thinking the person who developed the Web Accelerator should use all those servers, used to copy the internet, for podcasting!
