[Tweak Master]

Just a little tweak I'm sure some of you already know, but just incase here it is.

Go to start\run\type regedit\

Then go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr
entVersion\Explorer\RemoteComputer\NameSpace

Highlight this value:

{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF}

And Delete it, thats it! you should see an improvement.

Tweak Master,

It would help if you give information as to what deleting this key actually does.

Here is some info:

Slow Networking Performance (WXP)

My apologies, in my haste I forgot to be specific in exactly what this extraction of this value in the registry does. I will in the future provide more information to any tweaks or changes.

Thanks Ratboy for the heads up.

Hi,
Is this tweak only for WXP?

[Tweak Master]

No, this is for Internet Explorer.

[Gary R]

Ok, its for IE. But what IE Version is it for, and what does it do to improve things?

This tip works on ALL Windows 95/98/ME and NT4/2000/XP systems with MS Internet Explorer 4/5/6 installed.

This Registry fix speeds up internet/remote (using Windows Explorer and/or Internet Explorer) browsing process considerably on most MS Windows 32-bit machines connected to a network and/or remote computer(s).
This actually fixes a BUG in MS Windows OSes that scan shared (remote) folders/files across the network for Scheduled Tasks, and can add a delay as long as 30 seconds (!), because it uses extra time to search the remote computer(s). RECOMMENDED: Export (BACKUP) this Registry key to a REG file FIRST, to be able to restore it (by running the REG file) if necessary. In Regedit: highlight the key name in the left hand pane -> click "Registry" from the menu -> select "Export Registry File..." -> type a file name in the "File name" field -> browse to the destination of your choice -> push the Save button.

This Registry change takes effect immediately. Just start MS IE while connected to the network/internet to see the difference.NOTE: Upgrading to a future MS Internet Explorer release or reinstalling it may add this value to your Registry *again*, therefore you may need to delete it *again* after (re)installing MS IE.

I have Windows 95, IE4, and 3 computers on a LAN.

Thanks Tweak Master. You're a fast learner. People like me need a lot of info before we catch on. Sorry about that.

Love your photo.

I dont have this string

[pedroguy]

I'm with SGOOCH.I don't have this string either in the field.Mine is already blank.

[pedroguy]

Sorry:Should have added w98SE and IE 5.5

[TonyKlein]

I heard this one before, and removed the string (win98 SE as well), but didn't notice any improvement one way or the other.

Other people do notice a change, and yet others think they do, so, should you have the CLSID there, it certainly can't hurt to experiment with removing it.

You can even effectively disable it without removing it by inserting a minus sign in front of it so that it looks like this:

-{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF}
