Networking question for a paper that I have to write.

Anonymous

Dredd
Does anyone know how to turn off that fade effect in Windows 2000. Such as your Program Files or your Favorites. I can't stand how it hides the ones you don't visit often. .

HELP! IE5 Question

GHz
Does anyone know how to setup IE5 so it makes multiple connections when downloading from a server? By default it is set at 2, and this really is annoying. I try to download 5 things from the same site, and it only allows me to get 2 at a time.
