Good luck in Athens 2004 for all "clean" competitors!

Hi

According to someone on the web you can manually change the number of
simultanious connections to something more usefull under SP2
I havent tried this yet but I did kill the anoying nag that keeps on bitching
if you turn off auto updates by changing a reg setting.

This is the key to add to modify the maximum number of simultaneous connections

TcpNumConnections

Key: TcpipParameters
Value Type: REG_DWORD - Number
Valid Range: 0 - 0xfffffe
Default: 0xfffffe

Description: This parameter limits the maximum number of connections that TCP can have open simultaneously.
