Slow Connections in Windows XP SP2...
Hiya all,
Just a heads up: Windows XP SP2 includes a limitation for
only 10 half-open TCP/IP connections... This means that anytime there are more than 10 TCP/IP open requests, then the TCP/IP stack would queue the rest...
This would affect a lot of people trying to use programs that open a lot of ports simultaneously... A good example being P2P programs...
Here is the situation:

From the horse's mouth:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/pro...on127121120120
And the fix:
http://www.lvllord.de/?url=tools#4226patch
In so far as I can say, the fix works for me. And I have no more idiotic warnings in my event journal...
Cheers!

Actually, it doesn't give you more simultaneous downloads. What it does is to prevent the "rate limiting" of new connections that SP2 introduces.
