Ive been looking for a bandwidth monitor (for DSL), that shows upload
/download in a system tray icon.Most of the ones ive found any good are not
freeware or dont have the system tray icon or dont work on windows 98.Any
ideas appreciated.

Netmeter, maybe-don't know about the tray icon, though.

Try MyVitalAgent from Lucent. Google for it...

I don't know if it works with DSL, however.

Thanks..I used to use that when I was on dial up , however I dont think it
has a system tray upload/download icon.

I love this one: DX-Traffic
http://www.dx-soft.net/freeware/DXTraffic/index.php

Unfortunately it seems to be German only ... (didn't take a closer look
:-) maybe it's useful, though.

Bye,

It doesn't. My bad, I didn't read the full requirements. :/

I recommend NicMeter which works if you are using broadband through a
network interface card. It's freeware, has various display modes and
logging by day/week/month. Unfortunately the author seems to have
abandoned it. The web page is www.nicmeter.com but the download link is
broken. You can download it directly from here (0.5MB):
www.nicmeter.com/NicM00241.exe

NetPerSec from PC Magazine Utilities does this nicely, but unfortunately
it's no longer freeware. If you're determined, though, it shouldn't be too
hard to find a mirror somewhere.

Cheers,
Mark
