I was asking if windows XP itself holds
history of internet usage or not.. third
party programs will only account from the
moment they're installed.

thanks anyway for the suggestion.

Dear Jacky, thank you for your attention.
My ISP "IS" the cause of all this :)
it's a mobile network provider and they're totally incompetent.. so my simple quest is:
can windows (not any third party) software, retain info about my usage during a past specific period? or does it dump that info right after the connection session ends?

thanks again for all those trying to help.
any chance bill gates could help on this instead of just counting his wealth?!
hey bill.. make yourself a bit useful here !

by internet usage i mean the amount of bites
sent/received.

of XP. You will need to install a third party tool to be able to do what you want.
