Is there anyway to show how much internet you've used?

Like, when I go to my connection status, it gives me a number of how many packets have been sent/received. I'm just wondering if there's a program that can monitor how much data has been sent/received (not just packets, the actual amount). I keep going over my 100gb/month.

You could give "Bandwidth Monitor Pro" a try

I have that, and seriously recomend it.

I customized the skin so it can show the following:

DL/UL Usage Graphic
DL Speed in KB/s and/or in MB/s
UL Speed in Kb/s

Today's Downloaded in MB
Todays Uploaded in MB
This week's DL in GB
This Weeks UL in GB
This Month DL in GB
This month UL in GB
This Year's DL in GB or TB
This years UL in GB/TB

Download 60Gb this year so far

Yeah its weird cuz i can't seem to download more than 100-300Kb/s from torrents. Tough when its direct download.

Maybe i should join a newsgroup so i can use the full 1600Kb/s network

I can't seem to understand that even tought we have an "unlimited" bandwidth contract here some people get over 350GB download in a month get their net throtled down to half cuz the "exceeded the resonable bandwidth limit"

Indeed, in January I had 500GB free now i got 280GB free. When i saw that i was like, WTF?, where did I spends 250GB so fast

Oh and DNR, its now cheaper to buy a 1TB HDD (98€+-) than buying the same ammount of space on DVD (ON GOOD DVD's cuz the crappy ones will start desintegrating after a year of storage

, yes it hpnd to me)

Then theres HDD hubs who let you insert a HDD (in my case a 1tb backup one from samsung) Outside the case, upwards and then connect via eSata (you also get some handy USB2.0 ports and sometimes card readers

I just delete torrents

, right now I have a new computer that can harness 1.2 tb, but if I leave all the torrent connections open to upload, it will undermine my internet. hence I delete them after 1 month.
