What would cause this?

 

[Smilin]

your link is not working for me.


Things that can cause a negative ping:
Some gimpy assed network load balancing gear from IBM.
Bad clocks.
Intrusion detection or other devices altering your packets in route.

OMG! You've found a way to travel at the speed of light! J/K, I had to say that.

Out-of-order/damaged packets?

It probably means your IP stack is hosed. There should be some on microsoft on how to fix. search "repair ip stack"

Sounds like you've got a dual core CPU and didn't install the proper drivers for it.

Network stack runs on cpu0 only.
