    Download Files Quickly = Hang

    Hi there,

    This isn't exactly a PHP-related question, but I'm hoping that the
    community of developers here will have experience dealing with it. We
    want to allow users to view large files on our site, but we've realized
    that if users in IE click from one file to another too quickly (before
    the previous files have fully loaded), future files do not load until
    they close and reopen their browsers. We believe this is because of
    the two-concurrent-downloads limit -- apparently Firefox correctly
    recognizes when a download has been abandoned on the user's end, while
    IE does not, and this causes problems.

    Does this sound familiar to anyone? How have you avoided this problem?
    (And if you think this belongs in a different group, please just
    suggest it and I will post there.)

    Thanks!

Working...
