Actually, my Virgin surfing (wifi or cable) is dire but file downloads

Poor DNS?

Try hardcoding 8.8.8.8 (Google's public DNS) into your client for a

I can't see any diff, Tim.
Most web pages load in fits and starts whereas downloads are like

Your next bet would be to run wireshark on, load some new pages and see

Or perhaps Chrome with developer tools enabled?

Next thought is: could be adverts or some other call-backs for site
monitoring?
