Internet Traffic Monitoring
Before you can browse the internet with ease and comfort, you need to install internet traffic monitoring tools in your computer. And why did we say so? You may not know it, but by just "innocently" purchasing something online, you can be putting your welfare and the life of your family in danger. Cyberthieves and their spywares are all over the internet, mind you. Who knows? You and you're family might be their next victims. But don't worry, majority of internet traffic monitoring tools are free and are readily available for download on the internet.
And this would be extra easier for you if you're a Windows user. You can try visiting NMTF tools (that's the first site that'll appear in your Google search). You can find all the basic internet traffic tools you need here.
If you're particularly more into downloading/uploading files on the internet, we recommend NetBalancer. With NetBalancer installed in your computer, you'll be able to browse internet comfortably even while your download manager or torrent client is downloading huge files. This Windows software can be used to set download/upload transfer rate priority for any applications and monitor their internet traffic.
Linux users also have a fair share of traffic monitoring freewares on the internet. One is MZL & Novatech Traffic Statistics Linux Server 1.2.0.0. This software, which is a freeware by the way (as we've already mentiones), delivers network usage data for Linux gateways. What's good about it is it generates from libpcap IP data record files containing network usage information in bytes broken down by host and service with a minute precision.

My computer silently downloads about 175 MB/day. It is ezi_hnm2.exe (Dell Home Network Manager). Is it needed?
Hello, I have a question regarding silent downloads of my computer. I recently installed a network monitor to control internet traffic and discovered that every hour, ezi_hnm2.exe (Dell Home Network Manager) downloads about 7.25 MB. That results in roughly 175 MB per day and roughly 5 GB per month if the computer is running most of the time. It seems like a huge potential waste of traffic limits. I was wondering if anyone knows what the program is downloading and why it is doing it. What possible information is needed for the upkeep of my network functionality? It does so whether I am on Wi-Fi or cable connection. Should I disable the program? Before I try to do so, I am trying to make sure I understand what it is doing, if only for curiosity. I suppose there is a reason for all this. (I have Windows XP and a Dell laptop, although this information is useless for this purpose.) Thanks a lot in advance for sharing if you know.
Thanks. I have just discovered, after some research, that it was updates. So nasty! It has been checking for updates every hour. (Once I manually started and update check, it downloaded exactly the aforementioned volume...) I can't believe such an idiotic default setup has been made by Dell. I guess most inexperienced users are in the same situation, with network traffic increased for no reason. Anyway, thank you for the answer. Michal
