It may not be a code efficiency problem, it may be intentionally 
crippled to prevent you from using the client version for any 
high-performance communications, and force you to buy the server 
version.

*That* I would believe from Microsoft.

Exactly, that's why the workstation OSs have a limit of 10 TCP/IP shares.
Unfortunately, Microsoft seems to have invalidated the patch to the
tcpip.sys that I used for a few years to raise the limit to 50. 

Windows 2007, aka Longhorn, the next server release, is currently on open
beta from the Microsoft web site.  I've tried to download it with Firefox
and MSIE, but the Microsoft 'shop' software always returns 'error'.

Has anyone started testing ICS on Windows 2007?

I just downloaded it - not too big - 1.8GB for the x86 version - 2.4GB
for the x64 version- No problems. You do have to order it on-line for
the free D/L.

Perhaps you guys can test the IE7 on Windows 2007 with my stress tester:

http://www.fastream.com/ics/WebStressTester.zip

Try with a small file and a large static file. Also try connection:
close and keep-alive. Very user friendly and hi-performance--does not
open 1 thread for each connection.

Best Regards,

SZ

Nice tool that patches even latest versions of tcpip.sys
