God damn it, I had this tweak installed on IE5 for the longest time and then I upgraded to IE 6.0 a few weeks ago. I thought the lag was just the way IE 6.0 was then i installed this thing again and now it's back to about the same speed. Damn MS.

I've seen plenty of sites that will ban you using scripts for having multiple connections.
Also, many sites will only allow two simultaneous connections (as evidenced by only having two downloads at a time and the third timing out and leaving you unable to browse the site). Having IE attempt to download so much at once will sometimes caouse page elements to start timing out because the server is configured to refuse the connection. Not sure if IE is smart enough to retry that because it sure doesn't when file downloads are involved.

It isn't doing much for me, except giving me problems.... anyone have a quick way to remove it?
Probably not. AFAIK the tweak is for IE use only.
Try it and let us know if it works though. Mozilla *might* read the same registry entries for certain settings, but I doubt it.
it does not increase bandwitdh just the max number of connections you can make to a page. each element on a web pake takes a get statement this just lets you execute several at once thus useing your bandwith better.

How does Mozilla and those others compare to Crazy Browser. That was I am running and have been running for a while. Is it worth the switch over or what?
Would it kill you to try it yourself?? It's free, you know. In the time you sat there waiting for your answer, you could have downloaded several different browsers, configured them, browsed, and made your own conclusion. It's really not that difficult.
Wow, I'm sorry if i'm on vacation right now and can't really go and download and test out a whole bunch of browsers on someone elses computer. Thanks for your input though. Why don't you spend your time in another thread which actually has some importance to you?
