Have seen it sometimes on LANs with low round trip times to the servers
which are a little slow in responding. If memory serves me right certain
versions of NT wait 3*RTT before sending the packet again.

Its worth looking for a frozen sliding window which would indicate that
the server is saying "please slow down ".
