Multiple downloads

[arundahar]

I've checked the Enable multiple downloads box under Tools etc. But i can only ever get 2 downloads when using "Save Target As", whereas at work i can get loads (more than 4 anyway). Anyone any ideas?

Thanks

Arun

open Notepad and copy and paste the following between the lines and save the file as downloadfix.reg. Double-click on the file to merge the contents into the registry.

This will allow 4 downloads simultaneously.

I use this as well (slightly different values) but be warned, arundahar, the data transfer rate per download will probably drop to less than 1Kb/sec if you try 6 at a time. Not that that's a problem if you wish to set them up and go for a coffee! Andy. My suggestions are what I would try myself. If incorrect, I welcome corrections to my rather limited knowledge. Andy.
