[H] Monitoring what program is accessing the internet
I've noticed from time to time my little network icon is lit up as if I'm download and/or uploading. Is there a program that will monitor what programs are accessing the network interface, but not block the program? T

The netstat command is what you want. You can download a podcast that explains how to use it here: http://www.grc.com/SecurityNow.htm#49 Also, any good firewall program (like Kerio) will show you the same thing. The advantage is that Netstat is free with every copy of Windows. You can also grab a GUI for Netstat from here: http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/TcpView.html On 7/30/06, Thane Sherrington [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've noticed from time to time my little network icon is lit up as if I'm download and/or uploading.

Thanks, that appears to be just what I was looking for. T

One more thing - if you are worried about rootkits and such, they won't necessarily show up on netstat as they are probably invisible to Windows. The only way to see those would be to view the traffic on your network using Ethereal or something similar from another machine on the LAN.
