IP Traffic Monitor 3.0
A NETWORK TRAFFIC MONITOR AND LOGGER.
There are many reasons why you may want to monitor your Internet traffic flows. I'll point out only a few of the most popular reasons. No anti-virus can guarantee you 100% protection from Trojan Horses and malicious spyware or adware programs. Some of them are highly customized and checking against anti-virus databases does nothing. They also slow down your Internet connection. Needless to say that identity theft or using your computer as a peer-to-peer network hub for pirated software, music and video downloads without you even knowing about this may certainly have unwanted consequences. If you share your computer with family members or you administer computers in your office, knowing the Internet traffic details becomes essential. Network load balance, security reasons and more...
Recently I've come across a wonderful utility that serves just this purpose. IP Traffic Monitor sits in your system tray and monitors all your network connections. You can either monitor the active connections in real-time or browse historical logs. The program shows extensive information about each connection: remote host IP, remote host name (if available), amounts of incoming and outgoing traffic through this connection, timestamps of the first and last activity of this connection, name of the process that initiated or accepted this connection, full path to the application the process belongs to, etc. The traffic summary indicator shows an upload and download speed graph and traffic totals. In addition it draws pie chart diagrams that illustrate the percentage of certain hosts in the total incoming and outgoing traffic.
It would be naive to expect packet sniffer functionality from a $39.95 utility. Yet, IP Traffic Monitor includes a full-featured sniffer. You can easily capture and analyze TCP packets. Captured packets can be saved to a log file or analyzed in place. For example, you can analyze HTTP requests including passwords and other data that is sent to servers from your PC.

Make Bandwidth Usage on Your Local Machine Transparent!
New IP Traffic Monitor lets you capture and view the content of TCP/IP packets for any selected connection on your local machine and visualize all connections statistics as a pie chart
Skyward Software, today announces the release of version 3.0 of TCP/IP Traffic Monitor. This is a real-time TCP/IP monitor that tracks and analyzes all network connections on the local machine and provides you with the detailed information on each connection, including traffic direction and traffic volume in both directions. This information can help you detect spyware, adware, viruses and other suspicious activities before they compromise your system’s security.
What’s new in IP Traffic Monitor 3.0?
“With viruses and spyware causing havoc in homes and offices on a daily basis, there is a need for a simple, yet reliable tool to control bandwidth consumption on a local machine. IP Traffic Monitor delivers this competitive edge, ” says John Douglas, CEO of Skyward Software. “In version 3.0 we have introduced two additional features – Traffic Spy and Traffic Bar. As a real-time sniffer, Traffic Spy captures the data stream in real time, decodes packets and shows their content for any selected connection or all connections simultaneously. You can also filter packets by their content so that only packets that contain specified text are captured. Traffic Bar is another useful novelty. Instead of struggling through the digits, this feature lets you visualize connections statistics as a pie to easily estimate bandwidth distribution over hosts.”
IP Traffic Monitor at a glance
IP Traffic Monitor has a simplistic interface, which shows the list of all currently available connections between your machine and a remote host. Statistics is updated in real time, so changes are immediately displayed. Information on each connection is detailed and includes remote IP: port, remote host, downloaded and uploaded bytes, local source (PID): port (process name, process identifier, and local port number), first activity and last activity time, and a full path to an executable file. For your convenience, IP Traffic Monitor lets you sort connections by any column, copy interesting statistics to clipboard and save it to a log file that can be analyzed in the built-in log viewer at any convenient time in the future. The program supports Proxy servers and works with ADSL, ISDN, Dial-Up, cable modem, and Ethernet cards.
