Have any other platforms reported anything like this? Any immediate ideas.

We usually get reports of this from people transfering large files from our archive collection but we've also heard of pages or directory listings missing icons or other pieces due to aborted transfers.  One of our staff members was able to reproduce the problem under Mosaic and Netscape under NetBSD, so its not the "Netscape/WinTCP stack" problem.  The problem is hard to reproduce, but once I can do so and have more debugging (tcpdump) info, I'll let you know.
