Courtesy of a site called "Freshwater Software":
To change the timeout value that Internet Explorer uses:
1. Start the Registry Editor
2. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion
\ InternetSettings
3. Select New > DWORD from the Edit menu
4. Call it ReceiveTimeout with a data value of SECONDS*1000
5. Restart your computer
For example, if you want the timeout to be 5 minutes, set the ReceiveTimeout
data value to 300000 (300 * 1000)
