Avoid Having Your Internet Cut Off from your ISP’s Bandwidth Cap

Starting today Comcast joins the ISPs that limit the amount of data you can download in a month.  Comcast has set the limit, at a fairly generous, 250 Gigabytes per month.  Other Internet providers are not so generous. 

Unfortunately many ISPs give little feedback in advance as to how much you’re downloading, so that’s why you might need BitMeter II, a small free Windows utility that keeps track of how much you download. 

BitMeter does a great job of keeping track of what Internet resources your PC has consumed for both downloads and uploads.  BitMeter provides plenty of statistics for folks who like quantitative information and will reset itself at the beginning of a month to keep track of that month separately.
