1185627 2011-03-12 23:33:00 I think I have something on my PC burning through my bandwidth. I am at uni now and prepaid internet is really expensive, is there anything that can possibly monitor what is using my bandwidth? I've just checked a few emails this morning and it's already used over 400 mb :( nerd (109)
1185628 2011-03-12 23:43:00 Netlimiter should be able to tell you, you have to pay for the full version (to actually shape traffic) but you can download the free version that only monitors traffic here: www.netlimiter.com Agent_24 (57)
1185629 2011-03-12 23:49:00 Thanks, could it be spyware or something thats doing this?
Oh yea, forgot to mention pc:
win7 32bit (I think that's all that matters)
it's a HP

EDIT: win7 not supported, but it installed when I ran it in compatibility mode for xp

1185630 2011-03-12 23:55:00 Found what's doing it: svchost, but isn't that a system process? It's continuously downloading and uploading at a steady 500kbs :( any way I can stop it? nerd (109)
1185631 2011-03-13 00:14:00 It is a system process, but it handles a lot of things, and could be indeed hijacked by a virus or something.

Give us a Hijackthis log to see if there's anything odd...

1185633 2011-03-13 00:56:00 There doesn't seem to be anything obviously spyware there... you could try shutting down your background apps and see which one causes the data to stop transferring. Agent_24 (57)
1185634 2011-03-13 01:02:00 I messed something up when I was playing around with some system stuff and did a system restore which seems to have fixed it for now :D nerd (109)
1185635 2011-03-16 22:00:00 This is getting kind of ridiculous now, went through 2gb internet last night without doing a thing :( I remember zone alarm used to stop stuff, does it work with win7? nerd (109)
1185636 2011-03-16 22:34:00 Are you running any file-sharing programs? These can use a lot of data if you leave them running.

If not then it probably is a virus.

Try scanning with some online scans from NOD32, Trend Micro, Kaspersky etc.. see if anything comes up.
