Increase Internet Explorer Download Limit

If you have ever tried to download several things simultaneously through Internet Explorer then you may have noticed that it doesn't work quite the way you may have hoped it to. This is because IE limits the amount of simultaneous downloads to two. This is done so that the perceived download progress appears to be tolerable. If you have a high speed connection then your browser should be able to handle a few more downloads. Here is 2 steps that will increase the simultaneous download tasks from IE and also increase their speeds.

This is to increase the the number of max downloads to 10.
