   I'm connected via a Linksys router, then IPoA DSL.   I measure a maximum
packet size of 1514 all the way from either Windows or Linux to news.barkto.com.

   Yes, but it looks like they are behind the same router.   The problem
doesn't exist on www.barkto.com.    So it doesn't look like any router is
mangling the Window Scale setting.
