The post that was posted about 2 days ago stating that you could boost the internet explorer loading time by changing numbers in the registry... Well does anyone remember or know those numbers?

Here is the post:

This tweak will help web pages load faster, it has no real effect on download speeds, just helps your pc look up websites faster thereby speeding up how fast the page loads and making web-surfing more enjoyable.



For XP & 2K

use run, type in regedit and navigate to the following:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic
es\Tcpip\ServiceProvider

For 98, 98SE & ME

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Servic
es\VxD\MSTCP\ServiceProvider

On the right for ALL OS's change these entries: (ALL values are HEXIDECIMAL)

Class = 1
DnsPriority = 1
HostsPriority = 1
LocalPriority = 1
NetbtPriority = 1

To change the value right mouse click on the value and select modify and enter the values above once you have done all of them reboot to take effect and see how fast your pages load.

now does anyone know the numbers to the class, dnspriority, hostspriority, local and netbtpriorty... that were there before i did this tip?

Thanks

Also i'm using Windows Xp

adjusting system priorities is never a good idea, if another process requires a higher priority its not going to get it

Windows has different priority levels for a reason, mess about with them and you are likely to cause your system to be unstable and possibly crash when using other applications

if you do a system restore to before you tweaked, you will be ok

Doesn't look like a good idea to mess with those.
