Rep Power: 12 | 1. Press CTRL+ALT+DEL keys. IN Task Manager see application/s active. In processes which is hogging memory ? CPU Usage 100 % ? 2. Download Anvir Task Manager free and use it for more info/ control over Start Up/processes etc. 3 RUN Antivirus and Antispy program . May take more than two hours. Yahoo Antispy is quite fast. try it also. |

Rep Power: 1 | oh my god,there is no problem with receiving data when the connection is ON state.the send and received bytes you are seeing is just the communication between your computer and your modem.IT IS NOT THE COMMUNICATION BETWEEN YOUR MODEM AND BSNL SERVER.so don't worry,there is no virus or spyware running on your PC. by the way did u check the speed tab? its ays 100 Mbps!!! did you think that was your connection speed?!!! it's just the connection speed between the modem and computer. |

Rep Power: 1 | dear mr essbebe,i am posting a screen shot of my connection details.i have been connected to the internet just for 53 minutes but my modem and computer has been on for the whole day.please note the send and received data packet count,is it possible for such a high count just in 53 minutes of being connected to the internet?maybe what screen shot u have posted is the actual data count of the connection between your modem and BSNL server. please note that the connection details are available seperately for between the modem -computer or modem -bsnl server. |

Rep Power: 12 | @superprash2003. Just now used Yahoo Antispy. Removed 7 tracking cookies. time taken 7 seconds. I would not depend on the Network status page . I switched off modem/vonage/netgear614 . No Internet connection. As i am on Wireless mode, another wifi network was detected, and without any traffic/download/no browser/ NO OE still data was being exchanged. Wireless ethernet card (receiver) and external AP. Another difference : Mine was shown in Packets. Multiply by ( 10 start/stop byte ?) and about 3 MB was exchanged in an hour. ( another usage meter) ( please confirm this Packets to Bytes formula ) I find checking usage with Datafox/Firedfox Browser, immediately is the best option to check any unusual activity. Switch off Internet/modem and restart after 10 minutes. BSNL BB usage is updated. usually ( Again mine 59.xx.xx.xx may not work for 117.xx.xx.xx. cannot confirm. ) Last edited by essbebe; 08-04-09 at 06:11 PM.

Rep Power: 2 | Data in Packets can not be directly converted to Bytes because each Packet can contain different Payload. |
