200.193.246.5:35295 has shruck the sliding window value; window shrinking
requires both sides to be ready for this possibility; the Host Requirements
RFC strongly discourages shrinking but advises that it must be able to cope
with a peer that does this; ref. TCP/IP Illustrated, Vol 1 & 2, W. R. Stevens
You may be suffering from Silly Window Syndrome; the second set of numbers
seem to be time stamps showing the duration over which the syndrome is
corrected; this could be the TCP persist timer
Is it regular? Is there anything that percipitates the condition?
