Ok i am on the Karoo pro package (monthly basis) and have various stuff setup to download from midnight, however i am looking for a program that will kill my download at 7:50am so as not to go over the threshold.

My main stuff running is newsleecher so maybe a different program for usenet will allow me to set time frames for when the program can run???

Any help appreciated

You could try the following:-

NetLimiter 2 Lite

NetLimiter 2 is an ultimate internet traffic control and monitoring tool designed for Win2000 and later. You can use NetLimiter to set download/upload transfer rate limits for applications or even single connection and monitor their internet traffic.Along with this unique feature, Netlimiter offers comprehensive set of internet statistical tools. It includes real-time traffic measurement and long-term per-application internet traffic statistics.

If you do a google for it you will find it at the top Wink

You can also set newsleecher to shutdown the pc when its finished, which I use when download overnight.

Its under Queue tab, 'When Empty' drop down menu
