lordkafei Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 I am looking for some sort of way to monitor my Internet traffic. The graph in Windows Task Manager is not sufficient - it only shows me my total bandwidth, not broken down by process or app. I have something running in the background and it's driving me nuts - kicking in at the most inopportune times and generally slowing me down. I can't figure out what it is. Likely suspects I have ruled out: Adobe Acrobat - automatic updates turned offSun Java - automatic updates turned offWindows Security Center - automatic updates turned off Could be Google Chrome, but I can never catch the GoogleUpdate process running when this is going on.I am reasonably certain I'm not spamming out emails unawares, and there is nothing P2P running. I am on dial-up and this is a HUGE P.I.T.A. I schedule my bulky downloads for when I am eating, sleeping, etc. I don't need uppity apps running on some schedule other than mine. Any recommendations would be helpful.

Jernlov Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Actually I don't really know anything that monitors b/w by app. I was going to suggest NetMeter but again, it only gives totals. Steam | Soup | Last.fm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordkafei Posted November 27, 2010 Author Share Posted November 27, 2010 I use netlimiter. I found, downloaded and installed NetLimiter 2. This is exactly what I needed. Thanks!

OldJoe Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 If you'd like to limit up&down speed of specific programs you can use netbalancer. Just a late tip.
