   There is a possibility that we are hitting an upper level bandwidth
   limit between us an our upstream provider due to a misconfiguration
   on the other end, but this should only happen during peak time
   (which it is not right now). It just bugs me that 2.2.16 doesn't
   appear to have this problem.

The only thing I can do now is beg for a tcpdump from the windows95
machine side. Do you have the facilities necessary to obtain this?
This would prove that it is packet drop between the two systems, for
whatever reason, that is causing this.
