A small netstat indicator. It displays the current incoming and outgoing speeds of your network connection. Tooltip shows a cumulative count for tracking.
The reason Kon.. er WE runs zsh.exe is that it has to launch a command-line tool to get teh data I display (command being netstat). It's only supposed to launch it according to the frequency you set in your widget's preferences. Dunno if it's WE or Win that is causing the problem... :(
Same problem with zsh.exe - renamed it to xxzsh.exe - no additional probs? WHY does it activate zsh.exe?? Been using it for ages - first time I have had this...
Noticed today that my hard drive activity light was flashing on once per second, and CPU usage was high. Tracked it down to this widget. Using FileMon it seems the zsh.exe file within Yahoo Widgets is the errant one, and somehow this widget is kicking it off, as the behaviour stops when I close this widget, and comes back when I reopen it.
I've been using this widget for months now, and today is the frist time I've noticed this problem. No recent changes or updates - odd.

Hello was trying to find a widget that had the ability to track the last three connections. Example, some software kicks off a connection to www.google.com or I accept a connection as a tftp server etc. It would be nice to see the last three connections in the statas bar.
