That's the jetstream helpdesk and they aparently can send you (via email) a
more detailed usage report (I've just requested one).

I've also noticed that my usage appears to be growing at a ridiculous rate
at the moment - 15-20MB a day - and all I'm doing is a little websurfing,
checking emails, and running ICQ during the evenings - somethings up....
