Might be because of the higher download speed, your system is using more upstream to manage the downstream (e.g. it needs to send ACK packets, etc.) Usually when downloading at 64kB/sec this takes around 4kB/sec upstream, so I'd guess at ~90kB/sec it'll need around ~6kB/sec to keep the downloads running...
p.s. MSN hardly uses any bandwidth, hardly ever more than a single 20kB downstream burst during sign-in. I dunno what GSA is though...
