For some reason my IE won't let me right click and "save as" more than 3 windows at a time from the same website. Navigator would allow basically infinite numbers of download instances. Is there a setting I should change to correct/resolve this?

 

The number of connections allowed is restricted by the HTTP spec. If desired, you can change it by modifying the Registry (go to Start | Run... and enter "regedit"). See this article for details:

[QUOTE]To comply with current Internet standards (Request for Comments 2068), 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. To increase the number of simultaneous connections that are allowed to 10, follow these steps:
Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).
Locate the following key in the registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVe rsionInternet Settings

 

I'm in the reg editor (XP Pro), and I'm not 100% sure if I should add a binary or string value? thanks!

 

Neither binary nor string - you want DWORD.

 

Nevermind, DWORD, figured it out. thanks!
