You could always try www.speedguide.net 's tcp optimizer to change the max 
number of connections per server....  I am not sure if it will help your 
concern tho, as it sounds like a 'bursting' problem caused by something like 
antivirus/antispyware and/or a firewall or router. Maybe it's just because all 
3 are contributing as well.

But try the optimizer anyway.  You may enjoy some other effects from it on your 
connection.
