hey all

Im tryin to keep track of how much info i load to my comp from the internet ( my isp only allows me so much a month)
any ideas on the best way to do this?

 
save time and change your isp :)

You need some kind of program that sits between your computer and the internet, like a proxy. I have zonealarm firewall software ( - free download) that tells you, amongst other things, how many bytes have been sent and recieved by your computer. This is probably not an ideal solution but its a brilliant firewall, one of the best.
 
I was thinking more along the lines of doing it from inside vb, like mybe reading from the lan card or something. Anyone els have any ideas??
