Bluz,

That was pretty cool. Now I'm going to have to get an IPv6 tunnel working so I can see the color version. :)

Abigal,

/copy and paste someone else's resolution begin

Internet Explorer performance is greatly dependent in part on the number of simultaneous connections that can be made for a current page. By default, the value is 4. This means only a maximum of 4 simultaneous connectons will be made per server.

Start > Run > Regedit

Hive: HKEY_CURRENT_USER

Key: Software\ Microsoft\ Windows\ CurrentVersion\ Internet Settings

Name: MaxConnections PerServer

Type: REG_DWORD

Value: 10 (Decimal)

Name: MaxConnections Per1_0Server

Type: REG_DWORD

Value: 10 (decimal)

If these keys dont already exist, create them.

make two DWORD values

MaxConnections Per1_0Server : Decimal value 10

MaxConnections PerServer : Decimal value 10

/copy and paste end
