Download??

I have recently joined Orange broadband, which has a 2gb a month download limit, and as I occasionally download files etc I want to have an idea of how much I am downloading,





So basically I am asking is there a program (free, of course) which monitors your downloads (torrents aswell) so I know how much I have downloaded





OR





Can you do this by going to the orange website and getting all of your details up.





I have two computes in the house, both connected up to orange but i only download on one of them.





Thanks to all who help

On the left side of their homepage is a Download Monitor link.
Reply:Either of these programs should do what you want:

The Orange website should also tell you somewhere on your account page. I have no idea how you'd find that though because I don't use them.





However since you have a 2GB per month limit I'd recommend not downloading any torrents. That's a really low limit and you'll hit it very quickly, especially if you're downloading video.
Reply:If you like to check your own then please do the following:





1. Start network connection from Control Panel


(Click on Start -- Control Panel -- Network and Internet Connections -- Network Connections.)





2. You can see your Broadband connection as Local Area Connection or any other name. Right Click on that name and select Status.





3. Sum up the sent and received number. That is your total bytes used.





If you like to see bytes in KB then divide by 1024 then again divide it by 1024 that is your MB.





4. write down daily MB on paper, sum up at the end of month and you get a monthly used GB.
