go to cnet downloads and do a search for tweakui

This will give you the ability to tweak most anything.

You can also use TCPOptimizer to set your TCPIP settings to optimal in your registry. It is a simple utility that will give you recomendations, and also a button to accept them if you choose.

Good luck, and happy computing True knowlege is not the knowing in and of itself, but in the knowing of how and where to find the answers.
