    It is not just an IIS linit. For all connections the
    limit is 10 on Pro and 5 on Home.
    When running IIS keep in mind that a single browser
    often will open a few connections to download the
    parts of a single page (gif, etc.) so a limit of 10 may
    mean only 3 or 5 simultaneous web browsers.
