Have you noticed a problem if you try to download more than two files at once from the internet? The default number of simultaneous downloads from a web server is only 2. By tweaking the registry you can increase the number to 10.It is very useful for download freaks like me.


Instructions for Increasing the Number of Simultaneous Downloads

Launch Regedit Navigate to this key:

1.HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings
2.Create a new DWORD called MaxConnectionsPerServer
3.Set the value for DWORD = 000000a
4.Create another new DWORD called MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server
5.Also set the value of this DWORD = 0000000a

Note 1: Check Internet Settings (Not Internet Explorer)
Note 2: Hex 0000000a = Decimal 10


1.Do you find the MaxConnectionsPerServervalue in HKCU** or HKLM?
Answer: HKCU

2.Should you add a value, or modify an existing setting?

Answer: Create a new dword set the value = 0000000a

3.Is MaxConnectionsPerServer a String Value or a DWORD?

Answer: DWORD.

4.Do you need to Restart, or merely Log Off / On?
Answer: As it's a HKCU, just logoff and logon.

Tip:

Add this Value, MaxConnectionsPerServer to Regedit's Favorites menu

This maximum number of connections applies to any connection to a web server, not just to downloads.

This limit of two connections is set by the HTTP 1.1 specification (RFC2068) rather than Microsoft.

Dear friends,
I was actually waiting to get a google page rank before posting the payed posts.But I have lost patience.So here after I will post the payed posts with the label Other posts .Hope you continue your support.

I came across this widget while I was viewing angelika's blog.I am posting for the second time from that blog.(Hope I don't repeat it again).I posted this because this wiget shows the readability of my blog.ie.,who can read my blog.To my surprsie my other 2 blogs (which I must admit are inferior to this blog)show a reading of genius.But this blog shows a different result.It showed the result as undergraduate college.I don't know how these widgets work.But they sound crazy!

Three years ago, some people set out to design and build an entirely new class of device—a convenient, portable reading device with the ability to wirelessly download books, blogs, magazines, and newspapers. The result is Amazon Kindle.

They designed Kindle to provide an exceptional reading experience. Thanks to electronic paper, a revolutionary new display technology, reading Kindle’s screen is as sharp and natural as reading ink on paper—and nothing like the strain and glare of a computer screen. Kindle is also easy on the fingertips. It never becomes hot and is designed for ambidextrous use so both “lefties” and “righties” can read comfortably at any angle for long periods of time.

They wanted Kindle to be completely mobile and simple to use for everyone, so they made it wireless. No PC and no syncing needed. Using the same 3G network as advanced cell phones, they deliver your content using their own wireless delivery system, Amazon Whispernet. Unlike WiFi, you’ll never need to locate a hotspot. There are no confusing service plans, yearly contracts, or monthly wireless bills—they take care of the hassles so you can just read.

With Whispernet, you can be anywhere, think of a book, and get it in one minute. Similarly, your content automatically comes to you, wherever you are. Newspaper subscriptions are delivered wirelessly each morning. Most magazines arrive before they hit newsstands. Haven’t read the book for tomorrow night’s book club? Get it in a minute. Finished your book in the airport? Download the sequel while you board the plane. Whether you’re in the mood for something serious or hilarious, lighthearted or studious, Kindle delivers your spontaneous reading choices on demand.

And because they knew that you can’t judge a book by its cover, Kindle lets you download and read the beginning of books for free. This way, you can try it out—if you like it, simply buy and download with 1-Click, right from your Kindle, and continue reading. Want to try a newspaper as well? All newspaper subscriptions start with a risk-free two-week trial.Kindle’s paperback size and expandable memory let you travel light with your library. With the freedom to download what you want, when you want, I hope you’ll never again find yourself stuck without a great read.

The only problem with the device is it's cost:$399.

Thatz quite expensive...

I came across this widget while I was viewing someone else's blog,to be specific it was angelika's
blog.I agree with this stat because it says that I am 88% addicted to my blog.Infact it should be more.Anyway it is almost correct :-).

88%

After the successful attempt in making a poem,I am now posting my first short story.I have so far had no luck with long stories in any language(English and tamil).I have started 3 stories,written about 10 chapters then stopped it because of some reason.So I thought,"Why to try big stories and stop it?" Instead,I have written a short story!

The name of my story is THE INFINITE LOOP.You would agree with the title once you have finished reading the story.I would regard this as my best post till date.

THE INFINITE LOOP



"Hmmm…. Hmmm…" I heard a voice so familiar to me.

"Hello......."I started.

But I was rudely interrupted by the lady who made that sound. I had seen her somewhere. But I was unable to recall.

"Listen I don't have time. Nor, you have. All you have to do now is read this letter. It would be useful for you in your future, if you have a future."

This statement confused me.

"What do you mean by this?",I asked.

"You are caught in a time wrap Deepak, Just like my brother. You read this!", she insisted.

"I should leave this place soon or else I would enter into trouble. Read it", she again insisted and left in a flash.

I took a firm breath of air, opened the letter and started reading the letter.

Hi Deepak! My name is Deepak too. I knew that you are caught in a time wrap. The same incidents are repeating in your life again and again. I know this because I am suffering from the same problem too.

I stopped reading.

It's more than a coincidence. First, the person's name is same as mine. Now he has same problem as me. I had no other go except reading that letter. So, I continued reading.

You don't have much time. Why do you stop reading?

I was taken by surprise. Is he reading my mind? I continued reading.

I am not mind reading, friend. You will understand it once you completely read what I have written in this letter.

As I was saying, I am suffering from the same problem with which you are suffering. It all started when I met that girl. I had seen her when she was a kid (I was a kid too).Her name is Anandhi. She had come back to her grand parents' home (she used to live there when she was a kid).I desperately wanted to meet her. She knew me already (we used to play monopoly when we were kids). We were close friends. But there was some problem between my parents and her parents. And she had left to Australia along with her parents before ten years. I was waiting for a chance to speak with her.

One day, I received a message in my cell.

The message read:

I am Anandhi. I would be waiting in the ice-cream parlor in the next street at 6:00PM.PS: I would be waiting for you. Don’t reply to this message.

I was taken by surprise.

But I replied: Who is this?

There was no reply at all.

I wanted to give it a try. So I went to the Ice-cream parlor at 5:30 PM itself.

She was already present there.

I went inside the parlor and ordered for a chocolate milkshake with ice-cream and sat in the table exactly opposite to her.

She stared at me. And my cell vibrated.

I never saw her message me. But it was from the same number in which she had sent a message to me. It read:

Why did you come early?

After reading the message, I went to her table.

"I wanted to welcome you", I said. She said, "You are still the same naughty boy Deepak".

"And you are still the same silly little girl Anandhi", I said.

And we were chatting about my past, present, future. Then her past, present and future. We continued to chat till it was 9:00 PM. The parlor would be closed by 9:00 PM. So we had to leave.

This made me very happy. Chatting with her after 10 long years made me very happy.

Then, we started to meet regularly meet in the ice-cream parlor.
It was our favorite place to meet. An ideal place, I would call.

Anandhi has a brother. I had never seen him. He used to live with his parents, while Anandhi was living with her grand parents.

Anandhi said that he would come to her grand parents' home the next day. And she would be glad to introduce him to me.

I was waiting to meet him. I even had a haircut, to look smarter. But strangely, to my surprise he never turned up.

When I asked Anandhi, she said that he was a research mathematician working on 8-dimensional maths and he had some problems in his reasearch. She further added that her brother had sent a very big letter addressed to me.

"Why me?",I asked.

"I will bring the letter today evening. Wait in the parlor Deepu. I think only you can help my brother."

I was waiting in the ice-cream parlor, our usual meeting spot.

But I was caught in a time wrap, as I was waiting.

"Hmmm…. Hmmm…" I heard a voice so familiar to me.

Do you agree with the title "THE INFINITE LOOP"?


The End


This is a complex story for a first attempt.
Waiting eagerly for your comments.



If you want to disable the ability to use the F3 key from either the Windows Explorer or Internet Explorer

1.Start Regedit
2.Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Restrictions
3.Create a Dword value called NoFindFiles
4.Give it a value of 1
5.Reboot


Though I would not suggest you doing this...
I posted it because it is long time since i posted on registry hacking....
And to show that you can explore the registry to find more hacks....
