Downloading multiple files

[gunrunr`]

Trying to download several items at once and computer
will only download 2 and then won't even allow me to surf
the web. My old computer on ME would allow me to
download many files and still surf. How do I change
settings or can I?? I have broadband internet so
bandwidth shouldn't be the problem.

Internet Explorer limits the number of simultaneous downloads to two downloads,
plus one queued download. This configuration is a function of the browser.
However, as connection speeds increase, and the number of total connections
that are allowed to Internet servers increase, the two-connection limit may be
restrictive. To increase the number of simultaneous connections that are allowed
to 10, follow these steps:
