I take it that you have the router plugged into your computer and the network cable has been removed from the flatmates' computer. The router connects to the ISP on your computer for you to connect to the internet. Depending on your setup you can even get your own computer or network give you a ping. I don't believe that just this happening will give you 8.7 Gig of traffic. > So far my advice is to buy a boat and use the > "Flatmate" as an anchor. > > Thats helpful. No really. No... I have to admit that my post will not solve your problem. I posted my questions in the hope that I can solve your question and to elicit more info so that others may do so. I have set up networks in the past as recently as a few days ago I set up a home network where one computer will use the dial up connection where the modem is installed as is normal. Got the other computer to use the same connection. > > You have a home network and explained you have > disconnected your flatmates' computer from the > network. > > Would you like to tell all here what O/S you use? > Win XP Pro OK. Understood. > What phone filters have you? > Standard DSE Telepermitted line filter have I. Hmmmm. > No other devices connected to phone line I sense. You mentioned that there is no alarm fitted in your home earlier. So how many phones are plugged into outlets? As I work it out so far you have one voice phone plugged in. You don't say any different. What do you mean that "No other devices connected to the phone line I sense." Do you not know? For all I know you use cellphones for communication othe than the internet and have no landline phones at all. > Who installed this mess? > It actually installs itself. And it works. It's > just got some.... eccentricities. <sarcastic mode on > So all the hardware just jumped onto the desk of you and the flatmate and plugged itself in to available phone lines. I take it that the hardware just rewired the house you live in and just did everything. <sarcastic mode off > The eccentricities you mention above I think are costing you money. Otherwise why post here. The point of my post was to get some answers from you so that others who use Ihug and Jetstream and ADSL modems or Routers can explain why you are getting the traffic you complain about. Personally I can't help you as I can't see what you see. Your answers to my post may well help others to help you. I hope this helps.	Elephant (599)

So are you suggesting that the original poster gets Service Pack 1 for WinXP and all the network traffic will go away? I have installed Win XP SP1 and it works for me. I tried WinXP SP2 Beta RC2 and was not a happy chappy.	Elephant (599)
257714	2004-08-03 10:46:00	Sorry to keep you waiting . . My Mother rang . . . Go download sygate firewall . . . get familiar with it and then block each individual port/programme and windows service one by one . . . then you can tell me what programme this dollar wasting chatter is coming from . I did a quick google search, it is a familiar problem it seems, with cable and dialup?	fairway (5932)
257715	2004-08-03 11:12:00	>>>Have run: AVG antivirus, and Spybot S&D in the last 24 hours and >>>neither showed so much as a blip. While you are downloading, trash the AVG antivirus and go get Avast antivirus ..at least it updates hourly, automaticaly. (not when most people remember to) Spybot S&M has another update as well.	fairway (5932)
257716	2004-08-03 13:55:00	Avast is just as crap as AVG (www.virusbtn.com)	Rob99 (151)
257717	2004-08-03 14:23:00	> Sorry to keep you waiting .. My Mother rang ... Well if I still had a Mother alive and can talk to her I would feel really lucky. Some people would say that the sooner I get with my Mother the better even!!! :-) The original post seemed to blame the flatmate but having said that the flatmate has been disconnected by removing a network cable. Now being the suspicious sod that I am I could think that maybe the flat mate has access to the original posters PC as it would probably be in the same house. It was mentioned in the earlier post that the said flatmate was wanting to play games. The fact that you can unplug a cable will not help your PC to be secure if people have access to the PC and possibly know passwords.	Elephant (599)
257718	2004-08-03 18:29:00	Presume you mean the Spybot Definition Rules update of 28 July? A helpful reminder post meant PF1ers found that 5 days ago. Keep your eyes open & you won't be as late checking as "most people"..	Laura (43)
