Hi to all,

I have a question related to the number of concurrent downloads you can
start from IE.
At the moment all my downloads stop when i have 2 downloads active.

Is this anyway changeable in a registry setting. Never found any options in
the normal menu's.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Click to expand...
a search for "concurrent connections" ,quotes included, on Google will
get you what you need.

Will try to look via Google as remarked.

I am not looking for FTP program's as i have SmartFTP which works ok.
Just when downloading from sites (recorded music from radio stations) i get
stukc when downloading already to files.
The next one don't allow me to define the destination on my drive until the
others complete.

Tnx !

I just got my June 2004 issue of PC World and this question
is answered in detail on page 103.

PC World magazine link
http://www.pcworld.com/howto/article/0,aid,115606,pg,4,00.asp
This is the text with full PC World credit given...
....You could download more than two things at a time in
Internet Explorer? You may be getting less than you have
coming to you when you download in Internet Explorer. For
some reason, IE limits you by default to two simultaneous
downloads (crazy, I know, especially if you have a
high-speed Internet connection). To increase the number of
IE download streams in Windows XP, first click Start, Run,
type regedit, and press Enter to open Windows' Registry. In
the left pane, navigate to the following key (Registry-speak
for folder):
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
Internet Settings.
For safety's sake, back up this key before you proceed:
Right-click it and select Export; then choose the folder
that you store your backups in, give the file a name like
'IE Registry Backup', and click Save. Now you're ready to
start tinkering with the Registry settings. Choose Edit,
New, DWORD Value, type
MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server=Dword:0000000a, and press Enter.
Right-click the new entry, choose Modify, check the Decimal
radio button, enter 10 under 'Value data', and click OK.
Repeat these steps to create a DWORD Value in the same key
named MaxConnectionsPerServer=Dword:0000000a with the same
settings as the first one you created, and close the
Registry.



From the article by Steve Bass "Who Knew your { device}
Could Do That?} PCWorld June, 2004 Buy the magazine, best
there is.

that registry change will let you download 10 at a tim

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings
"MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server"=dword:0000000
"MaxConnectionsPerServer"=dword:0000000a
 
That would best be on a broadband connection.
