Need a monitoring tool...

Hello all,

I need a (free) monitoring tool that will tell me who (or what) is connected to my computer. Here and there I can hear the hard drive doing things, like a consistent click every second or so. It's probably an update being downloaded, but I'd like to know what it is.

What do you all prefer to use?

Thanks,

Starkman

 

Try this:

Start-> Run -> type "cmd"
Then enter this:

Code:

netstat

This will show all active connections to your machine.

 

You know, Goldfish, I forgot all about that little utility. Thanks. Anything out there that's GUI, though?

Thanks,

Starkman

 

Sure

Netstat Live

Do a search on the MG homepage for netstat and you'll find a couple of others

 

You da Goldfish!!!

Thanks very much,

Starkman
