Speed up Internet Explorer

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