Versnel Internet Explorer

The success of this particular Registry Tweak depends mostly on your current  Internet connection, but this tip is an excellent example of putting the  registry to work for you.

NOTE: Making changes to the registry can cause serious harm  to your computer if done incorrectly. Always backup your registry before making  any changes.

This article shows how to increase the number of streams that your browser  can draw from. Since Internet Explorer complies with HyperText Protocol v1.1,  browsers usually only draw two streams or less from a Web server.We are going to  increase that from two streams to six. This should enable you to browse much  faster. To begin:

1. Click Start – Run.
2. Type “regedit” and click OK.
3. In the left pane navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet  Settings
4. In the right pane you should see the contents of Internet Settings.
5. Check Regedit’s right-hand column for the following two lines (values): MaxConnectionsPerServer MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server
6. If these values are present, right-click on the first value  (MaxConnectionsPerServer), select Modify from the drop-down menu, click Decimal,  and set the Value data field to 6. Repeat this process for the second value  (MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server).
7. If these lines (values) are not listed, right-click on the white region of  Regedit’s right-hand column, click New, and then click DWORD Value.
8. Enter MaxConnectionsPerServer for the name of the new DWORD Value and press  Enter. The new value should now appear in Regedit’s right-hand column.
9. Right-click the new value and click Modify.
10. As in step six, click Decimal and set the Value Data field to 6, then click  OK.
11. Repeat steps seven through 10 using MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server as the new  DWORD Value name instead of MaxConnectionsPerServer.
12. Close Regedit and test Internet Explorer.
