Is this a Windows XP with Service Pack 2 system? SP2 has a new security
'feature' that will limit the amount of connections you can generate per
second to 10. For more info and a patch try this link:

Subject: [Ntop] OT:test network connection limit

Hi,

Would anyone be willing to do me a favour and write me a short script that
will test the number of successful connections I can make from my machine to
any machine on the internet?

The network programming skills I learned at school have fallen by the way
side :(

The problem is that I seem to only be able to make 10 connections to the
internet, and my ISP claims that they make no restrictions that should have
this effect. For example, if I set up a bittorrent client to only allow 10
connections, it will stop anything else (web browser, etc etc) that connects
over the internet.

I suspect there are one or two people on this list that could knock
something like this off in a could of seconds...probably best if it'll run
on Windows without having to install anything :| I wonder what I could write
it in....I've never programmed a Windows box :(

I suppose that last smilie should be a :)

Max.
