Speed up browsing by DNS cache

Each time u browse a web site on the internet,
the actual site name u type is resolved to an ip address.
This translation is effected through what is called the
DNS (Domain Name System).
This DNS information is stored in ur computer so that each time u type a web address ,
a record of its IP address is stored so that it can be recalled later without having to retrieve it again.
1 way to speed up ur browsing experience is to increase this DNS cache in windows XP.
u will need to modify registry for this .

Start notepad & enter following text into it :
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es|Dnscache\Parameters]
"CacheHashTableBucketSize"=dword:00000001
"CacheHashTableSize"=dword:00000180
"MaxCacheEntryTtILimit"=dword:0000fa00
"MaxSOACacheEntryTtILimit"=dword:0000012d

Save this file ,naming it dnscache.reg .
Double **** on the file in windows explorer & merge it into ur registry.

I think the correct code is

Code: Select all

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Dnscache\Parameters] 
"CacheHashTableBucketSize"=dword:00000001 
"CacheHashTableSize"=dword:00000180
"MaxCacheEntryTtILimit"=dword:0000fa00 
"MaxSOACacheEntryTtILimit"=dword:0000012d

I just tested it, it is not a valid Windows XP Registry script, don't know about other versions of windows.

I've tried it, it doesn't really work, it's supposed to optimize the internet settings, but it made no difference to me.

It is not a valid .reg file because its syntax is wrong.

use this:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Dnscache\Parameters]
"CacheHashTableBucketSize"=dword:00000001
"CacheHashTableSize"=dword:00000180
"MaxCacheEntryTtILimit"=dword:0000fa00
"MaxSOACacheEntryTtILimit"=dword:0000012d
