I've just been doing normal surfing to 3 forumn sites, and the program says i've download 1.2 mb of data. Is that normal?? for 20 mins of forum surfing???

Depending on your client (and forum) settings... Yes...

If you want to save some bandwidth, disable avatars, and sigintures, consider disabling images (Or only allows those from the originating site)...

As for the rouge client, unless your routing devices has some functionality to show bandiwdth consumtion, I think you're out of luck.. (Short of installing an app to do so on every PC)

Brother_S (A user on this forum) has a program to do just that, I can't remember it's name...

Anyone with a less crap memory recall it?

Windows task schedular (Start->Run    tasks) can be set to run anything when the computer has been idle x number of minutes... I know it's not exactly what you want... But similar...

Living Room / Re: So....How many processes do you have running on startup and during normal us
« on: June 01, 2006, 07:04 PM »
Personally I think memory usage is a better goal to aim for. With careful pruning of services I used to get sub 70mb for XP usage after boot.
