    actually, what i'm looking for is an app that displays in the tray and reports the actual bytes being sent, that is all.

    currently, the only way to view what comming in or out is through the right-click\tray\select status.

    it only reports packets sent/received. i want actual bytes reported instead. but i dont' want to install any suites, just something very small, if possible.

    thank you.

    Malware can exploit Windows Sidebar and Desktop Gadgets, so Microsoft advises removing these features from Windows Vista and Windows 7. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2719662

    I use tbbmeter

    You will get a nag screen every 30 days (or less if you ask) to register it but I never have and I've used it for years.
