ML> i forgot to ask and you forgot to tell... what type of internet
ML> connection?

 TJM> DSL ... did the same years back when I had cable.

what did the other end have? software and connection...

the reason i ask is that i've only ever seen this on high-latency
connections like dialup on paths with overly busy routers and such...

there was a lot of work done in the transfer engine to relax the timings
for these types of problems...
