can't upload files in Windows 7

[Shasoosh]

I've tried uploading some files to my dropbox account , the small ones (under 1 mb) went ok but when i tried to upload a 5 mb file the upload process went really fast and i got an error saying "Upload failed". Then i thought something is wrong with dropbox.. went to my gmail account, same thing, upload process went really fast and i got an error saying "Upload failed". Tried a web upload site, same thing! (im dual booting with xp) tried my xp machine with dropbox and gmail and everything is fine.

Thanks for the help... i really don't have a clue what can cause such a thing.

any one?

I've also noticed that when it happens in my Windows 7 system my surfing turns really slow and i need to restart my machine to get it back to normal

Probably not much help, but I use both gmail and dropbox, and they work perfectly.

thanks but that doesn't help much :)

I was starting to think that i'm the only one.

Now i've found another guy suffering from the exact same thing

^ I'm really sorry for the bumps but i can't edit my last post. I just figured out something really interesting, apparently Windows 7 doesn't cap my upload rate. I've downloaded Netlimiter and limited my upload to 32 Kb (my original upload rate) , when i do that everything is working fine but if i remove the limitation when i try to upload something im getting a burst of 100 Mb or so. (with null packets im guessing..) and that's what causing the upload to fail

I hope that will shade more light on that weird problem
