Is there any free software to monitor the NIC/Wireless port. All
software I have found have common features, but some features I am
really looking for are missing.

Features I would like:

A. Know what program/file is communicating with the network
B. How much bandwidth is the program utilizing currently and also
keeps a total for the time the program is ran.
C. Real-Time, either able to log or watch

All software I found just tells what IP's, protocol, and numerous
other handy stuff. But without knowing what software/files are
communicating defeats some purposes. I know some firewalls monitor
stuff im asking for, but I do not want to install those.

A good example of what im looking for is something as follows:

Firefox.exe - TCP - 200.12.57.21 - 54.6K
blah.dll - UDP - 200.12.57.21 - 3.4K

Instead of:

192.168.1.3 makes a TCP call to 200.12.57.21

Thanks

You can look for "wireshark." This seems to be such a software but
you have to configure the port dsecriptions.
