Track the amount of your accumulated bandwidth and customize the data.
An ideal tool for the bandwidth conscious, Bandwidth Monitor enables you to keep a close eye on the amount of bandwidth accumulated over the current hour, day, week, month, or even year! Advanced logging tools make it easy to view your bandwidth usage and make alterations to bandwidth logs. Clean up old data at the touch of a button, and import your bandwidth data from our predecessor Bandwidth Monitor 1.0. Version 2 adds Vista compatibility.
Accurate and easily shown usage of internet data for the month/week/day. Customisable!
Cons
I found that it cut off my internet after random periods of time usage. Which is only fixed be restarting computer. Once I uninstalled the program I had no more trouble with the internet stopping.
Summary
Not yet fully developed for non-experimetal use.

Pros
I liked almost nothing but I was reluctant to spend time investigating.
Cons
I found it non-intuitive to use & quickly became short tempered with not being able to get it to perform.
This program is poor at this stage of development & I would not recommend it to anyone.
I quite quickly un-installed.
Summary
Experience was frustrating & time wasting this product is not yet fit for deployment
Seems to do what it should

Pros
Ease of use
Cons
Don't seem to be able to delete individual daily totals and no running total given.
Summary
Simple, Effective, and Accurate
ARRC
Pros
I like the availability of the many skins available for this app. The display I selected was small, transparent, easy to configure, and accurate in its data collection.
Cons
Would like to see more log options like in BitMeter. The default skin can take up a lot of screen space and is hard to read. Would like to see a stopwatch feature added.
Summary
A very capable BW monitor which does what a good logging device should do. Could benefit from a few enhancements. The initial download required an update to a more recent version which added a tool for downloading and installing skins (themes).
Lot of bugs

Pros
None: unable to run it!
Cons
It doesn't work. I get an error straight from the beginning: "DeleteFile failed; code 5. Access is denied"... and then nothing
Summary
When i started the application, it told me that there was a newer version, which is nice. It downloaded, installed, then started again, and screwed up again and keep telling me that there's a newer version. This app just don't work...
oh and by the way: Yes i have admin right on my computer!
It's Not Complete Junk...But Close

Pros
I couldn't find any compared to what's available in the freeware marketplace
Cons
Lousy GUI. Odd graph.
Summary
This just isn't a real good piece of software and it's ugly. If you're looking for a good bandwidth monitor with logging capabilities, I suggest you look into Net Meter, also available via CNET.
Not nearly as good as NetWorx.
usad
Pros
Low overhead
Cons
Not as many features as other available programs that are also free.
Summary
Easy to use
MRichmondSA
Pros
Bandwidth monitor is easy to set up and the logs seem to keep an accurate record.
Cons
The graphs do take some time to understand and you do have to customize them to be useful.
Summary
If you need to keep track of how much bandwidth you are using this software will do exactly that.
Somehow the traffic reports were not accurate, it showed much more downloads and uploads than the actual value sometimes. Cross checked with other programs and they worked fine.
Summary
Nice piece of software to keep a tab on your connection speeds and daily downloads. Must have.
When you know how to use it, it's the best there is.
HyraxX
Pros
Very Powerful. Can track your usage by the hour, day, week, month ,year. Keeps logs.
Cons
Only formats the bandwith by GB and TB for most of the usage tracking. I don't use internet that much to see that I used .543 GB this month.
GUI is confusing. The default for customizing the color of the text output is the same color of app
