22345	2001-10-23 04:09:00	Hi I have a problem with Internet Explorer 5. I used to be able to download lots of things at once (6 plus sometimes) but I now can't download more that 2 things at a time. I haven't made any changes to any settings.(I have checked all my options and cant find any changes) I don't use a download manager (Gozilla etc) but I do download a LOT of objects for 'The Sims' and with this sudden restriction on my downloading it takes forever! Can anyone help? Thank you.	Guest (0)

I don't know the exact setting, but I posted this in case it reminds someone who does. BTW: Don't you find unzipping the files into the correct folder zip after zip really annoying?

I'd recommend Freshdownload from www.freshdevices.com as a download manager. It is easy to use and configure,supports multiple downloads and I have experienced the highest download speeds whilst using a 56K modem.	Guest (0)

22350	2001-10-23 06:51:00	Does Freshdownload contain 'spy software' ?? Many Sim sites do not respond to download managers and ask that you disable them. Up until a few days ago I could download to my hearts content but for some reason now I have a limit.	Guest (0)
