I don't know how you can make that judgement from your results. I think your results are worse than mine because you're running XP and might not have AHCI mode enabled on the disk so, the disk runs slow. I suspect you're running into paging too because of the relatively low amount of RAM.
What security software do you use? As an experiment, I might remove it, reboot then download more headers and see if you get your performance back.

This is so ridiculous that there's no way that it could be hardware.
