You might want to try "SlowDown.exe". It should be on UNNA. This application
will "slow" down your PC, so that NCU will be able to keep the communication
up. Other than that, I don't know. I'm sure there are a lot of other users
that use NCU on a Windows box, maybe somebody else will offer some help?
