Hello all,
I think my computer is infected by some weird virus... (I'm on Windows XP SP2) I keep getting really high uploads, as if someone was running a torrent client, but I know its not the case.

Since the behaviour of this, thing, seems rather erratic, I need something to monitor what programs use my internet connection, and when, and ideally, how much.
That way I could detect whats wrong.

I was thinking about writing a C program myself, perhaps using the windows api.

Any ideas that could help?

What firewall are you using? I like comodo firewall, which will let you block strange items.

For monitoring you can use Wireshark

I'm using X-NetStat.Professional. Try to find it from Google

It is a very strong tool...but it won't help you unless you know network things...such as tcp/ip lawers and what services are included in each step...also you should know the interfaces between the layers...To sum up wireshark would show you the number of packets the type of them and ip addresses....You have to decode their meanings...:cool:
