I've noticed some problems with the number of simultaneous connections after installing Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2).
 
Apparently, as a security measure, Microsoft has limited the number of simultaneous connections to 10 to reduce the spread of viruses such as MSBlast.
 
As a side effect, this has slowed down many eMule users and I've noticed some issues with my Skype client.
 
Well, I found a patch for it!  It patches the new TCPIP.SYS file in the C:\Windows\system32\drivers directory.  It does a simple change to the hex value 10 in the file.  I believe it defaults to 50, but lets you choose how many you want.  I'm going to try it out now.
 
Go download it here:
 
p.s. If you have a Hex Editor, this link tells you the position of where to change the value.

UPDATE! 7/6/05
It would appear that the link above is dead since his webserver crashed. He has a mirror site setup. Just go here:

Is 'Windows XP SP2, Skype, eMule' spam?
