 * 5) Click Maximum Sockets in the Property box, click Value, and then type a value of 40 or more in the Value box.

NOTE: Always keep the values entered for Maximum Connections and Maximum Sockets in a 1:2 ratio, for example, Maximum Connections=20, Maximum Sockets=40
 * 1) Click OK to close the IPX/SPX-compatible Protocol Properties dialog box, then click OK to close the Network dialog box.
 * 2) For the new values to take effect, you must reboot the computer.
