The limit on the number of files that can be downloaded simultaneously through Internet Explorer can sometimes get in the way when trying to download more than 2 (large) files at the same time. You can tweak the registry so that Internet Explorer will let you download more files at a time. The following sets the number of simultaenous download files to 32 (hex 0x20):

1. Navigate through the Registry Editor to HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings.
2. Create a new DWORD named MaxConnectionsPerServer and assign it a value of 00000020.
3. Create a new DWORD named MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server and assign it a value of 00000020.
