It is free, the only catch is that you have to return to their site every 30 days to renew the ID. This allows them to sell ad space to pay for the free service.

AnalogX NetStat Live (NSL)! NSL is a small, easy to use TCP/IP protocol monitor which can be used to see your exact throughput on both incoming and outgoing data - whether you're using a modem, cable modem, DSL, or even local network. It lets you see how quickly your data goes from your computer to another computer on the internet; it even will tell you how many other computers your data must go through to get there. It also monitors CPU usage just in case the slowdown is processor related.

AnalogX Script Defender will intercept any request to execute the most common scripting types used in virus attacks, such as Visual Basic Scripting (.VBS), Java Script (.JS), etc and can even be configured to intercept new script extensions as needed. It's very simple to use and helps to ensure that you do not inadvertently run a script no matter what email program you use, or even if you get it via another method. When a script request is made it pops up a window identifying the script and asks you if you want to run it.
