[python-win32] Connection reset by software under Win32 w/ BaseHTTPServer

I have written a fairly simple HTTP server using the BaseHTTPServer w/ 
Python 2.3.2 under Win32, and am constantly seeing 'Connection reset by 
software' errors, or other RST packets going over the wire for 
apparently no reason.  The time it happens most is when fetching a mp3 
from a remote server, and then passing it to the client.  I only fetch 
1024 bytes at a time, so the socket *shouldn't* be timing out, but it 
still seems to be from the error.

Has anyone seen this before?  (Was it fixed in 2.3.3?  I haven't had a 
chance to check yet)  Any help would be greatly appreciated!  Please be 
sure to cc me personally since I don't subscribe to this list!

    Thanks,
