Increase Number of Download Sessions in Internet Explorer

To comply with current Internet standards, 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.
Please Note: Changing the maximum number of connections beyond two is a violation of Internet standards; use at your own risk!

To increase the number of simultaneous connections that are allowed, follow these steps:

1. Start the Registry Editor
   a. Click on Start -> Run, type Regedit and press OK
   

   b. WARNING: Be very careful while you are running the registry editor. You can easily render your machine unable to boot if you play with settings you aren't familiar with!

2. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Internet Settings
   
3. Select New -> DWORD Value from the Edit menu
   
4. Name the new value MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server
   
5. Right-click the MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server value and choose Modify
   
6. Under Base, click the radio button next to Decimal
   
7. In the Value Data: box enter the number of simultaneous connections you want to set (for example 10 is a good value), and click OK
   
8. Repeat steps 3 - 7 using the new value MaxConnectionsPerServer
   
9. Exit the registry editor
