My point was that you need to run netstat to make sure it is XWin... saying
"seems" will not encourage anybody to look into this.
FWIW I don't think XWin is going to come out as the problem, as I said I haven't
seen that problem (and I use ssh -X all the time) and something as big as
"TCP/IP has reached the security limit" would certainly come up in this list
very often if XWin was the cause. You're not using WinXP Home are you?
