Increasing TCP/IP connections. Clarification please.

[Jumbo]

I received the following advice earlier in this NG from Drew Tognola but
when I attempted to make the changes I found that

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\InternetSettings
does not contain either of the MaxConnections entries.

Does this mean that they have to be added or should I just make the changes
in HKEY_CURRENT_USER?

***********************************************************************************
Increase concurrent open connections (from 10 to 100)

* Open Regedit, navigate to:
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings

* change the default settings for 'MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server' &
'MaxConnectionsPerServer' to 32 (Decimal), which is also 20 (Hexidecimal),
click OK.

navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings

Repeat the above settings for this location

* Exit Regedit
***********************************************************************************

TIA

Here is the path and the reg edit, if not already there, than yes, create them.

Data Type: REG_DWORD [Dword Value] // Value Name: MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server

Modify/Create the Value Data Type(s) and Value Name(s) as detailed below.

You'd do better to keep this discussion in the original thread for the
