What is a good program to monitor bandwidth use? Comcast is setting a limit so I need something to monitor it for me.
I have Windows XP Service Pack 3 Home Edition.
And it needs to be able to monitor regardless of which browser I use, though I use Opera most of the time.
I earlier asked how to increase the number of downloads I might run simultaneously and I received a satisfactory answer.NOW (yeah, I'm greedy), I want to know if it is possible when downloading several items to TEMPORARILY cause one download to be able to "hog" most of the link capacity.
When I click on the start button and then onto All Programs there is nothing there.My friend found the program files in a folder and moved that folder to the desktop so I could access them. I can't even find Accessories to run a defrag either.How can I get all the programs back onto the listing in the All Programs section? I tried a drag and drop - did'nt work.

I have a VGA USB camera#2 (I-cam 330) and i can't seem to use it anymore since system backup takes up 23% and my modem takes 35% of the bandwidth and my cam needs 60%.
Is it possible to tweak xp to allow only a certain amount of bandwidth to be allowed by an individual pc? we have online gamers and p2p users on our home lan that seem to use it all, while effecting other users from time to time. It would be nice to assign each user a specific amount of bandwidth.

I am trying to remove a program from my computer, its Superantispyware, however I cannot find the program listed in add/remove programs. Very weird! Has anyone ever heard of this happening before?

I get a serious error report everytime I load up XP. Caused by an error when I close down. Is there any way I can find out which programme is causing the error so I can delete it / reinstall? I suspect an update to Norton Antivirus or Internet Security was the culprit.
When I click on my C Drive icon in my computer it opened another program. I deleted this program and now get a message saying it cannot find the deleted program. Does anyone know how to fix this?
I have some software called "find it." The software indexes every word one types in microsoft word or excell. I have used it for many years in Windows 98 without problems, both in my home and at work. Recently my office updated the OS system from 98 to Windows XP2 Professional edition. The "Find it" program does not work with the Windows XP2. I have 2 laptops with Windows XP Home edition. "Find It" works fine in those laptops. TheWindowsXP search program is not as good as "Find It." Can anyone suggest how I might be able to get "Find It" to work with XP2 Professional Edition?
I am running XP. The system is crawling. When I do a Task Manager or Ctrl Alt Delete, the little green square is full up and this is with no programs running except Windows. I am using Finity Soft Memory Manager and this program says Free Ram 54%, Memory Load Index 44%, and CPU 100%. How do I find out what programs are running other than using Task Manager which shows no programs running?
i have a dual boot, Ubuntu 8.04 and XP SP3. Everything works as expected on the Ubuntu side, but for some reason while in windows when I want to go into standby, it won't.

I have this strange problem with my Dell Inspiron 930. When I open Fire Fox the CPU loads jumps to 100% and my mouse cuts out. The laptop hits temperatures of 60C +. I have done a virus using Avast Anti Virus and have found nothing. I have even made it scan before windows loads. I have done the same thing with spy bot search and destroy and I am really out of Ideas. This also effects Virtual DJ and Steam (Only in the community Tab = The one with flash). I think it might be Flash that is causing this, but I don't know how to complete remove flash from my laptop so that it can be reinstalled. Can someone please tell me how to remove and tell me if they know whats happening to my system. Computer Specs- Pentium M 2.0 (Centrino) 1GB RAM 100 GB HDD ATI X300 (128MB)
Hi windows just keeps crashing on me not all the time but for example it crashed about 7 times starting up today. Each one at a different point but all sort of just as my pc had stared up, i have concerns that im not getting as much out of my pc as i shud be able too, its a little slow at times as well is there any program or way of seeing if everything is in order??
My dad was using my computer, and I think he did a "system restore" or a reboot. I'm not sure which one because I wasn't there when he did it. (Unfortunately...) I start up my computer and my login is no longer on the login screen. It automatically logs in & starts Windows XP. My desktop has changed to factory setting, there are all these different icons on my desktop now, and it basically looks like it did when I opened it out of the box 2 years ago. I go to My Documents and none of my files are there. Same with My Pictures and My Music. My dad said when he did the reboot/restore the data files would not be deleted. They weren't, and I found them under "My Computer> C> Documents and settings> Owner> Owner's Documents". All of my docs, pics, and music are there. My question is, how can I get my computer back the way it was before my dad messed it up? If I can't do that, how can I get all of my documents, pictures, and music under the appropriate files? I tried to do a "system restore" but it won't let me choose a restore date before my dad messed with it.
I installed an upgread to AOL on three PC all useing Windows XP Home and it also come with Anti Virus softeware as we all know thing is when we rebooted them and went to look for a Photo in explore (right click START) then My pictures then the file all my thumbnails now look like a ICON with a Brush or a Sunset with a boat I did click on view and it is set at thumbnail
How do you find out what correct drivers to use on your computer?? I recently had a driver issue and was trying to upgrade my Nvidia drivers which I removed via the add/remove program but I'm now unable to get the correct version for my computer. I downloaded NVIDIA GeForce4 Ti 4600 [Display adapter] but everything (icons, fonts, etc) comes out miniaturized now!!!
I just moved in to college and set up my computer, but due to limited space didn't bring my second monitor. Now my aim, and ventrilo windows are still on the other monitor but no way to get them to the current monitor for use.
When Windows adds a new monitor using the standard driver, can it detect the aspect ratio? When I hooked up mine, all the resolution choice were for 4:3 monitors. There were no widescreen options. It should choose the monitor's native resolution on its own if the monitor is an LCD.
When i first got my computer the drive worked fine, but since the first time i opened it, It stopped working. Anyway I found the problem (the cable had been damaged) and now the computer can see it but cant find any drivers for it.Under drive properties it says the drivers are not installed code 28 I dont know the manufacturer of it either, the properties just say standard CD-ROM Drive
I'm using a compaq CQ60-224NR link: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/d...s&dlc=en&lc=en it came with vista but after many frustrations I went with XP I added RAM (4GB insted of 3GB) so I wanted the 64 bit version everything was fine untill an update made the sound terrible I tried to roll back the driver but I did not back it up (Dou!) well now I have no sound and I cannot find a driver. I know I was maybe getting into troble with XP 64 (pro sp2) I tried driver genius and driver finder (hope the money back is true) both failed
