Sure, you're absolutely right. Let me grab the Win7 sourcecode and fix
this...

But as I mentioned before: the fact that https works and http doesn't
clearly states that this is an issue with your virus scanner and/or
firewall, not with TSVN and/or Win7. Because I'm using Win7 x64 for more
than half a year now and never had this problem with any repository or
checkout.

And no, as I also mentioned several times on this list: deactivating the
virus scanner doesn't help most of the time, because those 'things'
think that deactivating them is either a user error or a virus trying to
do it, so they appear to be deactivated but keep interfering anyway. The
only way (sometimes not even that helps - I once had to reinstall
Windows because such a 'tool' refused to get cleanly deinstalled) is to
deinstall them.

I can only do that if it happens for me too, which it does not. So the
only one who can do that is you, because it's your setup that doesn't
work. And do what I suggested: remove your virus scanner and/or
firewall, reboot and try again.
