This is an area to share observations I have made working with Http Client Protocols and the associated technologies. I currently work for the Microsoft team that supports the WinInet, WinHTTP and System.Net API's and classes associated with these technologies. This is not a replacement for Microsoft Support, but an area to discuss these technologies. These postings are provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confer no rights.

The documentation on this is very straight forward (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa385328(VS.85).aspx). At the time of publishing however the documentation has a slight error.

The default value for this option is 4 connections.
