Thanks, Joe,
Yes. HP Win7 PC, for my sins. There are a couple of things that may do it . Glasswire being the most promising. Being what Owen calls a "citizen", I am very slow to download exe's on spec. Until I get desperate. I don't like to be the first penguin off the floe. Nick Nicholas S.

On a Mac you can look at the System Monitor to get information which seems to be what you are looking for. Perhaps others here can suggest a similar program on a Windows system.

It would tell me if my problem is, say, HP updates, or Firefox websites. But, unless I am wrong, it won't tell me which of the websites I am contacting is doing the dirty. For instance, I spend a lot of time looking at animated radar displays? They are only ten frames long, and don't seem very "verbose", how can I tell for sure.. Perhaps by logging my activities by hand and then using the time logging feature of Neworx I might figure it out. Ideally, the program I am looking for would give me the amount of data used up for each website contacted. Given the rarity of the problem, the software probably doesn't exist. Anyway, thanks for the suggestion. I will explore it more closely tomorrow. Nick Nicholas S.

It a bit like eating lunch with a shark. Every once in while you find out that you're missing part of your arm. So, I have been looking around on the web for an app which will tell me which one of my activities . podcasts, websites, upgrades, updates, etc. . is using up data. Now, I figure, being pros, most of you, you all live in places that have unmetered broad band. So I don't expect many of you to share my problem. But perhaps one of you has? There are several apps that seem perhaps to be relevant. One is "Glasswire". Is anybody familiar with it? I hope you are all summering well. Nick Nicholas S.
