There are two workarounds:This one also works inside [url] tags.

Yes I saw a thread on another site I am on in 2004 saying to make the MAX CONNECTIONS/MAX CONNECTIONS PER SERVER 48 .. Im not on FF.. I am using IE6 and I tried it with this browser and man what a difference!!

The default setting for IE6 is 2!! -- Yes TWO!!

I dont think ANY SERVER will accept more than 20 connections at 1 time form the same IP but I could be wrong.....

This one can help in a unique way to speed up Firefox.

No one uses IE6. I'd be surprised if you can browse the interwebs with it.

Yup I Use IE6 .. Thankfully I can do enough so I can get by :)

Some sites try to block IE6 (hehehe) all I do on those sites is change my UA so it says its a different browser and it works fine........

Its strange THEY ONLY ATTACK IE6!! -- If I put in MSIE5.5 the sites allow it.. (IE 5)

Not all..... Some sites block anything under IE7 and on those sites I have to put something else.......

Interesting, that's cross platform, works on Ububntu as well.

Ya I was quite happy seeing it sped IE6 up like it did....... Unreal the difference........

I dont understand why IE6 was originally set at 2!! -- Of course thats gonna be sloooooooooooooooooow!!

I reinstalled Windows 7 two years ago, which comes with IE 8. Eventually I tried it out and many sites simply didn't work right. Edge is fully supported and syncs with Windows 10.
