How can I change the # of simultaneous d/l's in IE5?

[joey1412]

Is there any way to change the number of simultaneous downloads in internet explorer? Right now it's at 4, and I'd like to up that number higher. Does anyone know of a way to do this?

joey1412, Microsoft Knowlege Base article Q183110 will tell you how to edit the Registry to increase the number of simultaneous requests allowed. Here is a link to that article:

Keep in mind that increasing the number of simultaneous requests allowed will break the HTTP protocol specification.
