Hello everyone,

I am using dialup connection and want to monitor my Internet Usage details on daily, weekly, monthly...basis and also when I connected/disconnected to/from the Internet and the connection time duration. I also want details of data tranfer (upload/download). Is their any software(free) which can perform these tasks and generate reports accordingly. In Linux (Fedora Core 5), the system logs give me enough details I want but in Windows I was'nt able to find any such solutions.

Please help me...

Thanks in advance.

Both the programs are good...But DU Meter is really impressive...because it has dial-up connection time logging...which I want the most...

Thanks Rakesh.

Hello everyone,

I am using DUMeter on Windows platform. It is a good piece of software but is not delivering what I want. I want something like KPPP Log Viewer, which is on Linux platform. It gives every tiny detail that a user may want. A daily, monthly detail view, logging for every connection I use (Reliance, BSNL). Time of login/logout, and data tranfer details also...(see attached image).

Is their any such utility under Windows too???

Thanks in advance.
