According to Lunarmedia Blog:Firefox have this limitation of downloading only 2 files at one time and always have to wait for the available slots after one of them is completed before able to download again.
This limitation sometimes is a bit problem for me as I download lots of files everyday. So after seeking out the solution via the above mentioned blog, I finally found the answer!
To Unlock the limitation simply follow the steps below.
Step 1 : type "about:config" in the address bar without the quotes
Step 2: Then search for this: network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server, double-click it and change the number 2 to e.g. 10.
How to download more then the Firefox Download limit of two files at the same time
Posted by Simon Tay at Thursday, August 16, 2007I had just had a good hang out with my friends yesterday night talking about many things such as Peak Oil and energy crisis...poking around with the supernatural here and there as it's the 7th Month of the Hungry Ghost Festival.
My friend Chee Xiong drove us (Manny, Mon and me) to Orchard road while Chee Xiong explains to us about the past histories of many scary locations in the area. On how one location near Orchard are used to be a cemetery for rich Chinese previously and how the MRT was built with many problems only to be resolved by burning offerings to the dead.
The mysterious night out ends by poking around about the future of Singapore and some ideas on how to improve the future.
Then comes my friend told me one key to secure a good living is to avoid telling everyone all my ideas and quote it as "Trade Secret".
This keyword for not revealing too much according to him is the key to be successful in businesses. There are business opportunities everywhere around us and only a slight improvements to the products and services compared to the competitors might prove to be a good venture or investment.
The things we purchase willingly will be the things that can sell easily, things that we cannot do without are too good businesses. Demand fuel supply, when there is a need in certain products there will always fast and efficient businessman to fill the supply. The problems is how to predict the next demand?
I will not reveal it as it's considered "Trade Secret"!!! (Psst...Internet have all the answers!)

I had been trying to do some work at Macdonald recently using the Singtel Wireless@SG Plus and found myself in a new environment compared to few years back.
No, it's not some kids surfing porno in Macdonald but more people are using Macdonald as study location or office. The mess they left behind includes messy eraser residue, chili spread inside coca cola cups and etc.
One look across the whole Macdonald, you can see laptops all over the places making use of the free wireless access and surfing nice sites and probably using it for work or home works. The people are staying in Macdonald much longer then usual, taking up the space for dining and eating. It's odd but I do have a feeling that Mac might remove the wireless services pretty soon as the space for dining are not really effectively utilized. The reasons why the chairs are made out of hard plastic and not soft cushions is not because they are cheap...but because they don't want customers to sit there for too long taking up space for other customers.
I too stayed in Macdonald for about 2-3 hours waiting for my movie to start in the theater and use the time surfing the net and do some catch up in my emails and of course do some work if possible. The only problem is lacking of power sockets for every table for the laptops to last more then the battery life.
Yes, Macbook does have long lifespan but my point is what is the new business opportunity in solving this very problem? This can be a new venue for laptop users to go to with power sockets that charges people by the minute or a cool outdoor surfing hang out locations that have a shelter and nice environment....for study or work. Maybe solving the battery lifespan is the new opportunity? Who have more power to laptops? Renewable Energy?
