I set the downloads to where it gets removed from list as soon as it is finished downloading. I would like switch it back to default where the finished files stay on the list. When I go to tools, options, I see nothing that comes up for that. Also, How do change the number of downloads able to download at once?

Tools>Options>Privacy>Remember download history This would enable download history. You cannot restrict the number of simultaneous downloads automatically.

Not related to your question, but your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks.

  1. Shockwave Flash 10.0 r22
  2. Next Generation Java Plug-in 1.6.0_18 for Mozilla browsers

Update the Flash plugin to the latest version.

Update the Java plugin to the latest version.

If you download files from the same server then there is a maximum of persistent connections (6) to one server. It is not polite to increase that maximum because that prevents others from accessing that server and may get you banned.
