Default how do I tell which program is using my broadband connection

After I startup my BT broadband connection the utilization
rises and stays in the range 20%-40%. I've tried stopping
and disabling all suspect services. Outgoing packets are
approx double the incoming packets.

Is there a way to tie network usage to process?
thanks

Bill,

Get Port Explorer (free) from
http://www.diamondcs.com.au/portexplorer/index.php?page=home to show you what
network connections your computer is opening, and what processes are opening
them.

And Process Explorer (free) from
http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/procexp.shtml. Provides way more
information than Task Manager.

That should be a good start.

Cheers,
Chuck
