If you are user of PTCL, LinkDotNet or Micronet or any other ISP giving you unlimited downloads then you may dont need to read this post. But if you are limited data user of wateen, witribe or EVO then you will find this interesting for you. As i mentioned earlier, i am using wateen. I dont know why but whenever i connect my wateen, it start eating bytes, even i am not using any thing. so i start searching for something to control this data flow. i tried many things but i found two of them very usefull and handy. so i want to tell you about this. These are sygate and netlimiter. these two softwares have different application but let me summarize a little
Sygate is a firewall to allow/diss-allow any application to interact with internet. it will ask from user to allow or not. it will even notify you when windows wants to get the latest update and msn messenger before signing in.
Netlimiter is another usefull application. although it works in same pattern but it has another advantage. it shows total incoming and outgoing data at the instant. means you can check your speed while watching a youtube video or listening a song. it can give you the speed in bytes, kilobytes and mega bytes. I was never able to get its register version or any crack. so if any body knows about it, then do tell me :).
