What's a good tool for monitoring data sent/recieved from/to specific processes

    i always get paranoid that a process is using my bandwidth without me knowing about it, does anybody know of a good tool i could use to easily confirm this? ideally some lightweight program capable of recording the amount of data sent/received as statistics. sankyuu~

    Process Hacker. There are numerous programs like it with different names but they all do the same.

    yeah, i've known about that one (and process monitor), but afaik they aren't capable of showing the actual bandwidth being used - just whether they are using connections or not. i could be wrong though, i'll give it another shot~ thanksu.

    If you open up Process Monitor, tools > network summary and then filter it to give you the precise send/recv info for the process you want :)

    Think that might be what your after...

    uhhh - if you have access[have] to a cisco router you can do it from there too.

    I wish I could afford cisco hardware at home lol.

    I'm sorry, but no. A cisco router cannot monitor data sent to processes on a computer. It can monitor data being sent across itself (the router), but not from a computer's NIC to the process requiring the data.
    while( !(succeed = try() ) );

    I think a Cisco 7XXX series can do that actually. Those are the ones that are like... super huge. Also I know for a fact that there is some hard-ware solution for that [which you would put into a Cisco router/switch] and allow you to do it that way. That's how my dad's company does it...

    In this case the cisco router has to have access to the PC which is kinda bad, take for instance a big company scenario, own the router and you own the network. But then again I doubt that there are such routers, you can get information going through it and it's detailed enough - local IP, time etc. (depends on router)
