   Downloads fail

   Having a problem with ALL downloads started on my XP desktop hanging   
   after about .5meg has been received. Does not matter if I use Internet   
   Explorer, Firefox, or Itunes. Can restart and eventually complete with   
   IE, but not Firefox or Itunes. Think it has to do with a parameter in   
   the registry or a timeout at the cable company (Cox), but their tech   
   says their hubs are OK. No problem downloading with other PCs using the   
   same local wired IP router. Ran ping, Trace Route. Ping Plotter shows   
   20-40% failure rates at nodes 5-10 hops out that are not under the   
   control of my cable provider. Any thing I can look at to fix the problem?
