Thanks for the answer. I thought that there was some simple solution, because when the tray identification of a connection (two monitors) is active, and I click on it I can see bytes/packets that are sent/received. Obviously, much more involving mechanism is working in the background. -- Best regards, Vladimir Stefanovic "Remy Lebeau (TeamB)" <no.spam@no.spam.com> wrote in message news:41edb59b$1@newsgroups.borland.com... > > "Vladimir Stefanovic" <antivari@po.sbb.co.yu> wrote in message > news:41ed684c@newsgroups.borland.com... > >> I pay to the internet provider price per megabyte. >> >> I was wandering how can *I* make software that will count >> how many bytes were sent/received through the connection >> while I was browsing internet. > > You will have to hook every socket that is created, and keep a running > count > of every byte that is transmitted/received for every packet of every > application.
