HEY LPSB,
IF YOU BUY A DOWNLOAD MANAGER GET NEODOWNLOADER. I HAVE USED THIS,
IT WILL FILL UP YOUR HARD DRIVE AT AN ALARMING RATE. DON'T USE IT
INDISCRIMINATELY, EVENTUALLY YOU WILL HAVE TO PERUSE THE PICS TO
SELECT THE ONES YOU WILL KEEP ANYWAY.
YOU WILL FIND IT LISTED AT THE LOWER PART OF THE WEBPAGE OF THE
LINK 'WARLOCK' GAVE YOU ABOVE HERE. IT IS AVAILABLE FOR A 30 DAY
TRIAL AFTER WHICH PURCHASE IS REQUIERED.
BECAUSE WINDOWS XP ALLOWS BY DEFAULT ONLY TWO SIMULTANEOUS
DOWNLOADS, MUCH OF YOUR CABLE OR DSL BANDWITH GOES TO WASTE.
YOU COULD CLICK ON MORE FILES WITHOUT NEEDING TO WAIT FOR THE
CURRENT ONE TO COMPLETELY DOWNLOAD.
THERE IS NO EASY WAY TO FIX THIS, YOU WILL JUST HAVE TO GET
DOWN AND DIRTY WITH THE REGISTRY EDITOR.
CLICK 'START', THEN 'RUN', AND IN THE TEXT BOX, TYPE ' regedit.exe '
EXPAND THE WINDOW TO FULL SIZE. IN THE LEFT HAND PANE YOU WILL SEE
'HKEY_CURRENT_USER', CLICK THE [+] TO EXPAND ITS TREE ( NOW DO THE
SAME FOR THESE ITEMS IN TURN AS EACH NEW TREE IS OPENED ) CLICK
'SOFTWARE' > CLICK 'MICROSOFT' > CLICK 'WINDOWS' > CLICK 'CURRENT
VERSION' >
IT SHOULD APPEAR AS SHOWN IN THE POSTED SCREENSHOT_REG HERE BELOW
NOW FIRST RIGHT CLICK 'INTERNET SETTINGS' ITSELF
NOT THE [+] AND SELECT 'EXPORT' FROM THE MENU. GIVE THIS A NAME
AND SAVE IT TO A KNOWN LOCATION. THE RESULTING FILE HAS AN ICON
LIKE A GREEN CUBE, WITH THE EXTENSION *.REG . IF YOU INADVERTENTLY
REMOVE SOMETHING YOU CAN ALWAYS CLICK ON THIS FILE, AND ANSWER THE
PROMPT 'ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO ADD THE INFORMATION TO THE REGISTRY'
AND EVERYTHING WILL BE BACK AS IT WAS.
NOW CLICK TO HIGHLIGHT 'INTERNET SETTINGS' AGAIN, IN THE RIGHT PANE
YOU WILL ADD THESE TWO ENTRIES
"MaxConnectionsPerServer"
"MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server"
RIGHT CLICK EMPTY SPACE IN THE RIGHT PANE, CLICK 'NEW ->' AND SELECT
'DWORD' FROM THE LIST, TYPE IN AS YOU SEE THE FIRST ENTRY ABOVE, AND
THEN REPEAT AGAIN AND CREATE THE SECOND JUST AS YOU SEE IT HERE.
NOW RIGHT CLICK ONE OF THEM AND SELECT 'MODIFY', IN THE POPUP BOX
UNDER BASE SELECT 'DECIMAL' THEN IN THE BOX ENTER ' 8 ' AND CLICK 'O K'
NOW DO THE SAME WITH THE OTHER ENTRY YOU CREATED.
WHAT THIS DOES IS IT ALLOWS YOU TO HAVE UP TO ' 8 ' INDIVIDUAL
SIMULTANEOUS DOWNLOADS. I HAVE SEEN VARIOUS SUGGESTIONS FOR THIS BUT
I USE ' 8 ', AND IS ABOUT ALL THAT WILL FIT ON MY SCREEN ANYWAY.
THERE IS AN EASIER WAY TO DO THIS THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE YOU TO DABBLE
WITH THE 'REGEDIT.EXE'. OPEN UP NOTEPAD AND JUST COPY AND PASTE WHAT
IS HERE BELOW IN BETWEEN THE HORIZONTAL LINES, BUT DO NOT INCLUDE THE
LINES _
__________________________________________________ ________________
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Internet Settings]
"MaxConnectionsPerServer"=dword:00000008
"MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server"=dword:00000010
__________________________________________________ ________________
NOW SAVE IT, AND WHEN YOU DO, CHANGE THE FILE EXTENSION FROM *.TXT
AND MAKE IT *.REG , NOW JUST AS DESCRIBED BEFORE, CLICK THIS FILE'S
ICON AND ANSWER THE PROMPT WITH YES, INSTANTLY THE TWO ENTRIES APPEAR
WRITTEN INTO THE REGISTRY JUST AS SHOWN. KEEP THAT REGISTRY WINDOW OPEN
AS YOU DO THIS AND YOU CAN WATCH IT HAPPEN
IF YOU FORGOTTEN HOW TO ENABLE HIDDEN FILE EXTENSIONS SEE THIS LINK ->

ANOTHER WAY, AND REALLY THIS IS TOOO EASY, GO HERE ->
http://www.9down.com/downloads.php?fileid=153
AND DOWNLOAD 'X-SETUP V7.0',
COPY THE SERIAL FROM THAT PAGE OR USE THE SAME ONE THAT COMES WITH THE
*.RAR FILE, THIS WILL VALIDATE IT FOR YOUR USE. VERSION 8.0 COSTS $ 8.00
I STILL USE EARLIER FREE V 6.0. ALL OF THESE REQUIRE INSTALLATION.
OPEN THE PROGRAM CLICK 'CLASSIC' AND OPEN THE TREE'S IN THE LEFT PANE
AS SHOWN IN THE SCREENSHOT_Xsetup POSTED HERE BELOW. IN THE RIGHT PANE
JUST ENTER THE VALUES YOU WANT FOR SIMULTANEOUS DOWNLOADS
HAVE FUN
