I had a similar problem to this at work, although not with Rosetta. It turned out to be the MTU size and one of the hops to the USA which would for some reason truncate the packets. It only happenned on larger transfers. Traceroute and ping were all fine.

MTU is set in regedit under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesTcpipParametersInterfaces
You will need to pick the current interface you are using and add a DWORD named MTU and set its value to 576 (dec) for a PPP connection or 1400 (dec) for a DSL

You will need to reboot after making the change. It is at least worth a try.

I just did that an try to attach to QMC same thing i get all the files but not the .exe. The only thing left to do is to go to another ISP if i can get a mounth free if not i'm not going to pay $$$ just to crunch data an find out it's not the ISP but something else. -:)
Thanks for trying. Have a nice day.

I wanted to post a follow up to my situation. Since moving from xandros to ubuntu I don't have the problem I described. Whether this is something to do with the kernel version or with xandros itself I don't know. I have just tried rosetta again and have been able to complete downloads. I do note that I am still getting some timeout and 500 errors, but ultimately I am getting files. I do not have these timeout issues with worldgrid. I will see whether this persists or whether it appears to be unrelated to what was happening before, but it may be that there is still something going on and that the OS change has somehow lessened the severity of the problem.

Boinc version is the same as it was in my previous posts.

I'll try to remember to post a follow up after I have had time to see whether the timeout issues are persistent or not.
