Was that much data actually being transmitted to begin with?  Those look
like reasonable amounts of data for socket packets.

That is not the correct way to handle things!  You should only be calling
ReceiveLength() *once*, and then reading however many bytes it says are
actually available, and then exit the event handler, waiting for the event
to be triggered again later to read more data.  If you do not read a full
packet, then you must buffer whatever data you did read, and then wait for
the event to be triggered again to add more data to the buffer.  Only
process packets when your buffer contains full packets.  Please go to
http://www.deja.com and do a search through the newsgroup archives.  Sample
code for proper buffering has been posted many times before.
