Note to Geo:
Your Windows 2000(?) box does seem to have some weird problem. It looks
like there might be a bug where it gets confused by the TCP window scaling
option. Maybe you should disable it.

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
Tcp1323Opts : DWORD : 0 (disable timestamps and window scaling)

(1323 = RFC 1323 options)

Later, you mentioned:
All traffic going into the location where the news server is passes thru a
packetshaper. I wonder if window scaling and the packet shaper are
interacting?

Later, you said to MikeN:
Ok, I just turned window scaling off. Try it now.

And Mike said:
With Window Scaling off, it works normally.
