#1, It's likely not your machine, Vista, or the site and its technology and it isn't IE 7, either...
The anomaly you are describing has a lot more to do with your router and its ability to support many forms of dynamic scaling and TCP optimization so what you are seeing may well be best solved at the perimeter of your network.
To begin to solve this, open a command line as an Admin and enter the following:
netsh interface tcp set global ecncapability=enabled
Restart your computer.
The above explicitly enables ECN support in Windows Vista.
