Simon fixed a few bugs in the set that I thought were ready; in those 
cases he upped the timeout because the amount of data being trasferred is 
quite large.

I think Simon fixed some of these errors.

Yes, I understand. I think we need to determine whether the problem is on 
the W3C side or on the Microsoft side. I don't really think that I can 
help with that since I can't see the logs. I wonder if you tried the tests 
with ?wss appended to the urls to get the secure versions. That would at 
least give an indication of whether the issue was something specific to 
port 80.
