Downloader

Does anyone know what I have to do to increase the
maximum download limit on Win XP home? It's currently set
at 2, which is irritating, cause I have to wait all the
time.

I think I have to alter a field in the registry but I'm
not sure which one.

Copy the information below to a file with a .reg extension, merge it into
your registry:

---- cut here ----
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

;Increase number of Downloads possible in IE
; By default, IE can only download 2 at a time.
; This increases that number to 99 at a time.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings]
"MaxConnectionsPerServer"=dword:00000063
"MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server"=dword:00000063
---- cut here ----
