These are 2 registry tweaks from ages ago that was used by all the 'pro' cs players back in the day. I did not think it would have much of an effect but I was suprised with the results, I believe since service pack 3 this has much more of an effect. If your using vista im unsure if this will work, why the hell you using vista anyway?
The biggest suprise though was the effect it had on my world of warcraft, my ping pretty much reduced by 80%. Im guessing this is because wow is more TCP related than UDP unlike cs. Screenshots to follow when I get home from work.
CS ping went from
25-30 to 15-25 depending on server
I even got a ping of 10 at one point, but was only 3 people on the server.
wow ping (stormscale EU server) went from
100 - 150 to 30-40
massive improvement.
You can view it here www.mynameiscraig.com
oh and yes, you will have to register on my 5minute crappy old website to view it in the forums, however i dont mind if someone registers and pastes it here, as long as one person at least registered.
This is one of many guides i will be digging out of the closet.
***edit, because im nice i just posted it below, but if it works for you give me some credit and register on my site anyway.

Quoted........
If you are running Windows Vista I don't know if these tweaks will work, or if the registry files are there to even change, why the hell you using vista anyway?
1 - TcpAckFrequency
Start > Run > regedit > OK
Then find:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces \
There will be multiple NIC interfaces listed in there, find the one you use to connect to the internet, there will be several interfaces listed (they have long names like {7DBA6DCA-FFE8-4002-A28F-4D2B57AE8383}. Click each one, the right one will have lots of settings in it and you will see your machines IP address listed there somewhere.
Right-click in the right hand pane and add a new DWORD value, name it TcpAckFrequency, then right click the entry and click Modify and assign a value of 1.
You can change it back to 2 (default) at a later stage if it affects your other TCP application performance. it tells windows how many TCP packets to wait before sending ACK. if the value is 1, windows will send ACK every time it receives a TCP package.
2 - TCPNoDelay
This one is pretty simple
Start > Run > regedit > OK
Then find:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSMQ\Parameters
Right-click in the right hand pane and add a new DWORD value, name it TCPNoDelay, then right click the entry and click Modify and assign a value of 1.
Click OK and close the registry editor, then reboot your PC.
Load up WoW or CS, take a look at the change, worked for me and the other people who tried it, try it yourself.

I'm on XP Professional with SP3 and have it.
Will give the tweak a go later on, sounds good. Does it affect stability at all though?

need more wow players to test this, or other games that mainly use TCP, CS is more UDP so I havent seen much of an improvement now.

Nice one just to be sure no1 does end up having a buggered registry backiup its really easy, once in regedit click file/export name it and hit save. When you click on the backup copy it will revert back to the origanal settings. blah blah.
Will try later thanks :>

I love google found this and has worked for me
1. Open up Notepad.
2. Copy these EXACT lines into Notepad:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSMQ]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSMQ\Parameters]
"TCPNoDelay"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSMQ\Parameters\OCMsetup]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSMQ\Parameters\Security]
"SecureDSCommunication"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSMQ\Parameters\setup]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSMQ\Setup]
Leave one extra blank line after the \Setup]
3. Now, click Save As..., save to the desktop, and save as "all files" (NOT .TXT). Save the file as msmq.reg and minimize to the desktop.
4. The file should look like a broken rubix cube. Double-click on it and it will ask if you want to merge it into the registry. Click yes.
Edit - TCPNoDelay already added with value aswell

Yup it will as it does the exact same thing or u could just delete the line of TCPnoDelay and re-enter it yourself but it does the same thing anyway
Edit - just tested my cs ping went from 70 to 50 on a server so its gone a bit better for me, bloody interleaving :p
