Heh, those chokes may have been while I was working on the server in search of what is wrong. So, it could have been a locked down firewall or I took the DNS or email server temporarily offline. The only thing running on the server with any problems is HLDS.
In fact, here's a strange one. Ping the server and get ~50ms. Go into GameSpy and refresh, it pings ~50ms. Go in game and sometimes have a latency of ~2000-3000. But, external pings and such are still at 50ms. Needless to say, I'll probably re-install the entire HLDS (full install again) to see if I still have the same problems. I doubt it will help, but, it's worth a try anyway.
