Dear all,

Where is the setting for IExplorer that I can change to allow more than 2
concurent downloads? I would like to be able to download 4 at a time rather
than 2. Is it in the Registry?

Thanks again...

It's in the RFC defining the standard called HTTP 1.1. Why do you think you
should be allowed to violate the standard? If you have a good reason, let us
hear it.

Alan,

Thanks for your help and Tom are you having a bad day? Have a look at the
article Alan mentions.

Thanks for both your help...

The RFC says 'should', not 'must'. So allowing for more than 2 would
not violate the standard.
