How could this tweak improve performance?

Create a new DWORD value (or string for Windows 98) called "DeadGWDetect" and set it to equal "0" to disable dead gateway detection or "1" to enable it.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\MSTCP]

Value Name: DeadGWDetect
Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value Data: (0 = disabled, 1 = enabled)

Settings like that are the ones I leave set to default.

Mess around with it.. maybe you'll notice a speed difference.. or maybe you'll need to format. :D
