Perhaps it should be mentioned that this registry hack is for:
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 for Windows 2000
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 for Windows 2000
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 for Windows 2000
Microsoft Internet Explorer version 6 for Windows XP
<paste>
This procedure is for informational purposes only. Changing the maximum
number of connections beyond two is a violation of Internet standards;
Microsoft does not recommended this procedure for use outside closed
networks.

Not to mention that the Registry should first be backed-up, and that the Key
should be exported first before doing any Registry mods might also have been
a good recommendation.

Also, I may be wrong, but, I think this will not work for other OS'es.
Please correct me if I am mistaken in this assumption.
