IE5 doesn't download more than 2 files at the same time?

[Michel Jr]

Hi,

I'm using IE5. How can I download more than 2 files at the same time?
Every time I try to download 3 or more files, these files stay waiting for the finish of the 2 first files.
I only can download 2 files each time.

Is there a solution for this problem?

Thanks a lot...

I don't think there is a set number of files you can download at a time...it's just how the inet control feels that day.

Actually, its a limit that the HTTP protocol has, in HTTP 1.0, Windows limits it to 4 connections per server (limitation of the protocol itself) and in HTTP 1.1 it is limited to 2 connections per server (industry limit?). I think these are industry standards and there's actually a registry hack to increase the number, see it at
