Mornin'all,

This is a long shot, but I'm hoping someone may've run into this.

I need to limit the total number of concurrent connections IE can make.  The
purpose is to record the exact order of requests that are made by IE.
Looking through a normal proxy doesn't quite help since IE can make more
than one parallel connection, and proxies can swap requests depending on
which processes faster, not necessarily which browser "ordered" first.

I'm aware of MaxConnectionsPerServer (default 2) & Max
Connections1_0PerServer (default 4) settings and ability to change each to
value 1.  The problem is that most modern sites link to more than one
server.  E.g. go to something like amazon.com, and while loading landing
page, the browser will probably go to something like images.amazon.com,
scripts.amazon.com, amazon.distributionpartnernetwork.com,
amazon.advertisingnetwork.com, etc, etc,...  Since all these are different
servers, IE can have more total parallel connections than the setting's
value.

I need to figure out how to make IE only make a total of one connection at a
time.

Any hints would be appreciated.  Solution can be configuration as well as
programatic.

Thanks,
Lenny
