Every time I've experienced interference (numerous times), it hasn't affected ping times. From what I've seen, it usually causes lost packets, but not high latency. I don't know if anyone has mentioned this before (I jumped in in the middle of this thread), but what you're describing sounds exactly like something I experienced a few weeks ago. I had about six users with the Welchia virus, and they were causing high latency all over the network. If you haven't done it already, put a packet sniffer on the network, and see if you're seeing a lot of icmp echo traffic.
