^As in my first post, DuMeter displays address of remote server an application is trying to connect, not exactly the name of site.

networx has a feature called netstat ( better than windows command line tool ) - it will show ip address by default - on the upper left corner there's a option Resolve Addresses to Host Names - put a tick mark on that and you're done ;-)

Comodo do the same thing.
It lists the remote server address of each software.
