TCP Window-Full Zero-Window Stall Downloads
I just receive my Windows 7 64-bit laptop and I encountered problems with Internet downloads. I've tried download using IE or Firefox and via the LAN and Wireless adapters and the results are the same - downloads always stuck in the middle at random position and cannot complete. I use Wireshark to capture the network packets and discovered that whenever the download interruption occur there will be TCP Window-Full sent over from the server on the other side and the local adapters respond with TCP Zero-Window then the download stalls. Then I downgrade the machine to Windws XP everything working fine, so I believe this is a Windows 7 related issue, any idea how can this TCP Window-Full /Zero-Window stalls download problems under Windows 7 be resolved?
