wmv files down loading more than two

[Mike]

Hi all

Is there a limit in windows XP which restricts the number of wmv files which can be down loaded at any given time. My PC only appears to allow two.

Can it be changed ?

Thanks

Mike

Yes there is a limit - the limit is with IE. Use a download manager!

I've used GetRight before - quite simple to use.

You can change the max number of downloads for IE via a registry key, but GetRight would be a better option.

Here's the registry fix if you want to use it.
1-Start the Registry Editor
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
