Hello
you may have noticed that windows 7 lacking the Network Lights at the bottom of the screen.

i have tried too much to enable it, it may be deleted by microsoft, but any way there is a great free small utility here:

just double click on the NetworkIndicator.exe file and it will appear like this:

Kent,

that indicator shows only the network status change and not the flow of bytes when there is some activity on the net.

Oh I see, that is all I need as my internet as been terrible lately... cutting off all the time and then coming back up, so when a page doesn't load immediately I look at that icon.
