Myself and a person in the UK have noticed the same thing. The only thing i can see in common is that both of us having this problem are dialing into a xylogics annex terminal server. 2 example sites that seem to give this problem connecting to are: resnet.uoregon.edu (Where Doug White's pages are) and www.netcraft.co.uk. Going and using lynx on the ISP's shell box works just fine to these sites. It's something between us and them. Which is the term server, and our os.
