we had this, it was very odd, it only started happening when we upgraded
the bios on a tyan motherboard to fix other problems, the firewalls had
never shown the problem before.

in desperation we tried a fix which we'd only ever previously used for
linux - there used to be a problem with the e1000 driver when power
saving is enabled in the e1000's eeprom. the fix worked, and I applied
it by booting a linux rescue disk and ran the eeprom fix program that I
got from the e1000 sourceforce website; their wiki seems to have
disappeared so I can't find the script, so I've placed a copy here:

if you have the problem on linux you get "detected tx unit hang" thus:
