   IE Throughput monitor using VB5/6   
   22 Jan 05 20:22:50   
   
   From: grahame9@btinternet.com   
      
   I am after a small prog which will monitor the amount of downloaded data   
   into my Internet Explorer v6 and Outlook Express (XP Pro SP1). I need this   
   to keep track so I do not exceed my download limits.   
      
   To start with I am after a small window which would sit discreetly in a   
   corner (always on top) and simply display a numerical percentage, based on   
   2GB value of received data.   
      
   As a bonus, it would be nice if it started/quitted automatically, but as the   
   limits are calculated monthly, it would have to save any value to a file on   
   quitting, and reload it on start and reset when required.   
      
   Ideas and pointers? Any help appreciated.
