What is X-NetStat?
X-NetStat is a program that displays information on your current Internet and network connections, much like the console netstat.exe program, but in a graphical interface. These connections are established each time you visit a web page, send an instant message, check your email, or anytime you do network activity that requires you to connect to another computer. They also appear when outside computers attempt to connect to your machine, authorized or not.
Each connection is displayed
in the Connection
Table, where you can see the address you are connected to, what ports (local
and remote) are being used, the connection status, the program EXE used
to open the connection, how much bandwidth/traffic the
connection is using, and how
long the connection has been active. In a sense, it's kind of like
Internet/network radar.
In addition to this base information, X-NetStat provides tools to look up information on the remote connections.
