Ben,<div><br></div><div>Do you have any sort of managed switching environment in place? If so then you should be able to check each switch/port and identify the culprit rather easily. That will get you to the necessary network segment then the much smaller task of identifying the individual/computer can commence. </div>

</div>We have a fractional T1 smart-T through Paetec. 1.33 up and down.<br>
Using paetec portal as the visualizer, our download utilization is<br>
pegged most of the day. The network is mainly for e-mail, and<br>
reporting from our software vender. We do have people running<br>
streaming services, but I have asked them not to for the afternoon.<br>
We do have our website on the network but that is a small static site.<br>
<br>
Also I am on windows right now trying to do this.<br>
