Why Very Slow DNS on 8.2, But Not on WinXP?

Anyone know why name resolution using my cable provider's nameservers is impossibly slow on a standard untweaked 8.2 install, but quite fast with WinXP on the same machine, same provider, same nameservers?

I see the same slowness whether or not my firewall is running, and whether or not I'm running a local cacheing nameserver.

Thanks.
