I would appreciate help to solve this problem?

Based in New Zealand, I have an internet service with a
megabyte limit on my usage. Anytime I download data, the
usage meter shows upload as well. Last month I downlaoded
1100MB and the meter showed 900MB of upload also. This
siginificantly restricts my usage of the internet.
Somebody told me that there is a firewall whcih comes with
XP and if I turn it off/disable it, it should solve the
problem. I can't locate that firewall.

Your help is required to stop this unknown upload.

Every time you download data to your pc data is also
uploaded. It checks for errors and cannot be turned off by
using a firewall. However to turn on the firewall go to
Control Panel, Right click on My Network Places. Then
right click on the internet connectio. Click the advanced
tab and then click the tick box to protect your pc. Cheers.
