|Yup, I wondered if you'd been playing with Gnutella when I saw
|your post. If
|you read a bit about how g works you'll see that your machine
|effectively
|becomes part of a global search space and gets "hit" by
|hundreds of other
|machines all day everyday... hence high traffic. Probably to
|be avoided, or
|just run from time to time when *you* want to search.

|
|This may be a good time to mention that I ran Gnutella, yea
|yea I know, I
|started downloading a 175MB file (for evaluation purposes of
|course). By the
|next morning my usage had gone up 900MB. I was not sharing anyting via
|Gnutella, or any other shares, so I am not too sure where the
|900MB came
|from......but it will teach me not to use Gnutella and the like ;-)
|
|So beware
